The place was first mentioned in 734 as "Chamara". The current place name was not used until the 16th century. The original castle belonged to the Lords of Kammer and Camer, first attested in the 11th century. They were ministerials to the Counts of Scheyern .

With the second municipal edict in Bavaria , Hohenkammer became an independent political municipality in 1818. Before 1855 the place Oberwohlbach was incorporated, on January 1, 1972 territorial parts of the municipality Schlipps followed . On April 1, 1972, parts of the dissolved community of Lauterbach were added.
