The place, which was badly damaged in the Thirty Years' War , was repopulated by numerous Austrian religious refugees who found a new home here.

Towards the end of the 18th century the high court was jointly exercised by the Ansbach Oberamt Wassertrüdingen and the Oberamt Spielberg from Oettingen- Spielberg . The community itself held the village and community rulership, as it was a free village . There were 109 properties and a castle, a parish church, a cemetery church, a parsonage, a community shepherd's house, a community forge with a schoolhouse on the upper floor. Were landlords
