history
Maitis became an independent municipality in 1826 when it was spun off from Hohenstaufen .

On April 1, 1972, the reclassification from the district of Schwäbisch Gmünd to the district of Göppingen and the incorporation into its district town took place. Today there is a new development area east of the old village center.
Lenglingen was until February 29, 1972 a hamlet of the community Großdeinbach in what was then the district of Schwäbisch Gmünd . Then he belonged with Großdeinbach to the city of Schwäbisch Gmünd . On January 1, 1973 it was reclassified to Göppingen and has been part of the Maitis district since then.

The current nave was built in 1464 as a side extension to the chapel. In this year the church "sub honore et vocabulo sti leonhardi et beatissime marie" was consecrated, ie to Saint Leonard and the Virgin Mary.
