Until the 19th century
Obergriesbach was created in the first half of the 12th century. Ludlof von Hahnreith, who took the name Griezbeck von Griezenbach in 1124, is considered the progenitor of the Griesbach family. So he is also the ancestor of Obergriesbach.
In 1468 Wigulaeus von Weichs took over Obergriesbach Castle. Valuable gravestones in the parish church of St. Stephan still bear witness to this today. The entire Hofmark was sold to Countess Marie Violante Theresia von Thurn und Taxis in 1730.
Since 1831 the barons of Gravenreuth , based in Affing, have also owned the Hofmark Obergriesbach. Since then, the castle has mostly been the widow's seat of the Barons von Gravenreuth.

coat of arms
The description of the coat of arms reads: In red, a raised silver stepped gable, covered with a curled black tip, with a silver wavy bar below.
The municipal coat of arms reminds of two families that are important for the place. The stepped gable comes from the seal of the Lords of Griesbach, who held Obergriesbach as a fiefdom of the Biburg Monastery until 1293 . The monastery kept the place as Hofmark until 1468 and then sold it to the Lords of Weichs, who soon also acquired Zahling and Latzenhausen. Members of the family held respected positions as high state officials, canons or Teutonic Knights . The Hofmark remained in their possession until 1730. The curved tip is taken from her coat of arms. The wave bar indicates the location of the community in the valley of the couple.

Not only from the surrounding area, but often from far away, the guests came to visit the old, renovated building with an artistically tasteful interior not far from the Obergriesbach Castle and the idyllic garden. A number of prominent guests, such as Rockefeller heirs, Royal Highness Princess Pilar of Bavaria with Prince Ludwig of Bavaria, former Prime Minister Alfons Goppel, etc. also visited the palace café. For several years now, the castle café has only been used privately.
