Probably in the 10th century on peninsulas in the Langbürgner See east of Hemhof the first castle complexes were built at the behest of a certain Hadamar.

Hemhof was first mentioned in a document in 1150 as Hemmenhoven.

A Hartmannsberg castle was first mentioned in a document in 1160 ( Zickenburg and Zinnenburg castle stalls ). At that time, the Counts of Falkenstein-Neuburg administered from here, among other things, the bailiwick of the Augustinian canons of Herrenchiemsee. The Codex Falkensteinensis , a famous manuscript from 1166, contains a stylized drawing of the castle. This representation can still be found today in a simplified form in the coat of arms of the Bad Endorf district of Hemhof.

In the 13th century the family of the Counts of Falkenstein-Neuburg died out. In their place in Hartmannsberg came the Wittelsbachers and in the 14th century the Freiherrn von Pienzenau .
