The Raming has been a center of the Eisenwurzen small iron industry since the High Middle Ages , and is famous for its blade forging. The church of St. James the Elder was built in the 11th century and rebuilt around 1500. In 1771, when the Kirnberg parish was established, most of the church was rebuilt and rebuilt in 1858.
