Mörsach was mentioned in 1468 in connection with an early measurement foundation in the Antonius chapel belonging to the parish of Arberg . In 1476/77 the parish was founded. In 1615, 22 properties were named in Mörsach. The landlords were the Hochstift Eichstätt (17 properties), the St. Veitstift Herrieden (three properties) and the second parish Gunzenhausen (two properties). For comparison: in 1670 the place had only 19 properties and in 1960 again 24 in 1765, the wedding of the court architect of the Eichstätt Monastery , Domenico Maria Salle , took place in Mörsach .

In 1806 Mörsach came to the Kingdom of Bavaria . With the community edict (early 19th century), Mörsach was assigned to the Arberg tax district . A little later, the rural community Mörsach was formed, to which the places Georgenhaag and Gothendorf belonged. It was subject to the Herrieden district court in terms of administration and jurisdiction . The municipality had an area of ​​5,439 km². In the course of the regional reform in Bavaria , the community was incorporated into the Arberg market on January 1, 1971.

After 1450 the choir , the stair tower and the tower were added, and around 1490 the portal on the south side was added. In 1797 the tower was given an octagonal tower. A neo-Gothic interior renovation took place from 1863. The valuable Ottilien Altar is a high altar put together in 1872 using shrine figures from around 1480 and wing panel images from 1518 with depictions of the otile legend. To the east of the choir there is a covered, fountain-like source river, called the Otilienbrünnlein, whose water was popular during pilgrimages against eye diseases. A bell from Schmottseiffen in the Giant Mountains that was cast in 1498 reached the Mörsach bell cage via Hamburg. It was originally supposed to be melted down for war purposes and after 1950 came to the parish church of St. Anthony. The cemetery has a medieval walling made of stone. The tombstones are from the 18th to 20th centuries.
  • On the village green in front of the parish church is the local chapel, a small solid building with plaster structure from the 18th century.
  • The Catholic field chapel of the Holy Trinity is located on the road to Ornbau . The small solid building from the 18th century was renewed in 1904.
