history

The well-kept place can look back on a history since 1267, because in that year it was first mentioned in a document. There are currently 200 people living in the village in well-tended four-sided courtyards. Künsdorf was and is an agriculturally oriented place with tourism.

The current church was built in 1719.

In 1806, Bavarian troops under Napoleon set off a fire in the village because the farmers in Seubtendorf were fighting against the invaders.

On April 15, 1945, American troops confiscated over half of the houses to house the soldiers.

On January 1, 1997, Künsdorf was incorporated into Tanna.
