location

The village is located on a mountain spur between the Kirchthal and the Albach valley and was first mentioned in 1280 as "Churfsperg". The place name can come from the old German word Chupf for tip.

In 1368, the Bergen monastery had a hat there . In 1525 Kursberg came to Fürnried church . In 1603 there were five residential buildings with the shepherd's house and a day laborer's house.

The Bavarian district court Sulzbach had high jurisdiction , the village and community rulership was held by the Hersbruck nursing office and the hamlet belonged to the parish of Alfeld. The Hersbruck Nursing Authority also had tax sovereignty over the three half-lifts. Ten lords were the Reichenecker, then the Parsbergers, and later the Graflich Schönborn fiefdoms lent two estates to the Holzschuhersche estate of Thalheim. The third estate belonged to a Dr. Hörl from Nuremberg . The number of inhabitants changed from 23 in 1867 to 29 in 1875, only 16 in 1904. The now 4 properties belonged to the municipality of Alfeld with church, post office and school since the beginning of the 19th century. In 1950 the hamlet only consisted of 3 residential buildings with a total of 14 residents. 11 years later, 10 people lived here in 4 residential buildings, in 1994 again 12 and on June 30, 2005 Kursberg had 13 residents and 5 residential buildings.
