history

Until the church is planted

Kaisheim was Obervogtamt and belonged to the local imperial monastery of Kaisheim . The monastery was founded in 1133 by Count Heinrich III. founded by Lechsgemünd and his wife Liukardis. It was presumably an imperial monastery since 1370, but it was not until 1656 that the monastery became directly imperial . Since the secularization in 1803 the place belongs to Bavaria . In the course of the administrative reforms in the Kingdom of Bavaria , today's municipality was created with the municipal edict of 1818 .

The Latin name of the place was "Caesarea" (Kaisersheim).
