It was probably one of the two Meiertümer that belonged to Althornberg Castle in the 14th century . Gremmelsbach came to Triberg when the Hornberg rule was divided around 1280; with this as an imperial fief in 1325 initially to the Counts of Hohenberg , 1355 to Habsburg and was pledged to various lords until the 17th century. It was part of Upper Austria until 1805 , temporarily part of Württemberg, and from 1806 belonged to the Grand Duchy of Baden . Until 1924 it belonged to the Triberg District Office and then to the Villingen District Office.
