history
Around Ilsfeld there are a total of ten total devastation, which were probably settled during the time of the Alamanni . Village-like settlements have developed from individual farmsteads. The associated marking usually comprised three tents with a total of an average of 800 acres of land, which were sufficient to feed around 100 to 200 people. These settlements were mostly abandoned by the 14th century, five of them were dissolved in Ilsfeld, where a manor was located.
Gendach was mentioned as Jendan when Ilsfeld was first mentioned in 1102 . Later it is only referred to as a defected gene roof . The origin of the name is unknown. The Gendach mark merged with the Ilsfeld mark.
A little east of the village there was once a hill castle in the Wiesental on the Schozach , which is still referred to by the field names Burgstuhl and Burgweg . The former castle hill, however, was leveled in 1948 when the course of the Schozach was corrected. The castle was possibly the seat of the Ilsfeld local nobility from the turn of the millennium, before they or their alleged relatives moved to the Wunnenstein , about two kilometers south and much higher, in the 13th century .
