In a referendum on May 25, 2014, the citizens of the communities Böwingen / Attert and Tüntingen agreed to a community merger. In Böwingen 69.51% and in Tüntingen 64.09% were in favor of a merger. On the basis of the survey, both municipal councils then voted for the merger. On January 1, 2018, the communities of Böwingen / Attert and Tüntingen were finally merged to form the new community of Helperknapp. The name Helperknapp is derived from a mountain of the same name in the municipality.
