history
Until the church is planted
In 1337 the parish of Herzogenaurach transferred 22 places to the Heilig-Geist-Spital Nürnberg, including very probably Obermichelbach, Untermichelbach and Rothenberg. In 1348 the place was first mentioned in a document as "Grozzenmichelbach". The place name is derived from the name of the water body "Michelbach", whose defining word is the Middle High German "michel" (= large, wide).
1360/1370 the place was listed in the land register of the burgraviate of Nuremberg . In the Salbuch of the Cadolzburg office of 1414, the names of the feudal subjects of the Burgrave of Nuremberg were named in "Obernmichelbach". In the Salbuch of the Cadolzburg office of 1464, "Obermichelbach", "Nydernmichelbach" and "Rotperg" were named. In a description of Nuremberg and its surrounding area in 1504, "Obernmichelbach", "Unter-Michelbach", "Zum Rotenperg" were also mentioned. In 1634 Obermichelbach and Rothenberg burned down during the Thirty Years' War . The first schoolmaster was mentioned in 1664, the skin carver Thomas Haindel . In the Oberamtsbeschreibung by Johann Georg Vetter in 1732 Obermichelbach, Untermichelbach and Rothenberg were described. A copper engraving by Obermichelbach from 1759 is the oldest surviving picture of the place.
At the end of the 18th century there were 20 properties in Obermichelbach. The high court and the village and community rulership was exercised by the Brandenburg-Ansbach municipal bailiff's office in Langenzenn . The Brandenburg-Bayreuth City Bailiff's Office in Markt Erlbach exercised the high court over the Bavarian subjects to a limited extent. The landlords were the Neuhof caste office in Brandenburg-Bayreuth (2 courtyards), the Langenzenn hospital and von Fürer together (5 courtyards, 1 estate, 1 house, 1 shepherd's house), the imperial city of Nuremberg : Spitalamt (1 courtyard, 1 house), Landesalmosenamt (1st floor) Half yard) and Nuremberg owners: von Muffel (2 half yards, 2 estates), von Praun (2 half yards, 1 estate).
1792 the Principality of Ansbach - and thus also Obermichelbach - to Prussia . In 1806 this was incorporated into the Kingdom of Bavaria .
19th century
As part of the municipal edict, the Obermichelbach tax district was formed in 1808 . The first section included the places Rothenberg and Untermichelbach , the second section included the places Burgstall , Galgenhof , Hauptendorf , Schleifmühle and Steinbach . In the same year the rural community of Obermichelbach was founded, which was congruent with the I. section of the tax district. The municipality was under the administration and jurisdiction of the Cadolzburg Regional Court and the Cadolzburg Rent Office for the financial administration . From 1862 Obermichelbach was administered by the Fürth district office (renamed the Fürth district in 1938 ). In 1872 jurisdiction was transferred to the Fürth District Court , and since 1880 it has been with the Fürth District Court . The financial administration was taken over by the Rentamt Fürth (renamed Finanzamt Fürth in 1920 ) in 1870 .
In 1835 the community received cadastre with parcels and house numbers. There were 35 farms.
The planning of a railway line from Siegelsdorf station via Obermichelbach to Herzogenaurach was finally rejected in 1883. In 1869 the office of mayor was created on the basis of a new municipal code and in 1870 a municipal committee.
20th century
In 1909 Obermichelbach received a public telephone and in 1912 it was connected to the power grid. A parish hall was built in Obermichelbach in 1911. Self-government was introduced in 1919 by a new municipal code and the municipality committee was replaced by a municipality council.
In 1921 the school community took over the school building from the church foundation. A post office was set up in 1936. In 1942 two church bells were delivered and melted down. In 1943 there were air raids on Ober- and Untermichelbach. On April 17, 1945 the troops of the United States Army occupied the three places of the municipality. The land consolidation was completed in 1967. The Obermichelbach elementary school was dissolved in 1969 and incorporated into the Veitsbronn Association School. In 1974 the Protestant kindergarten was inaugurated. In the course of the regional reform in Bavaria, Obermichelbach, together with Tuchenbach and Puschendorf, left the Veitsbronn administrative association in 1980 to found the Obermichelbach-Puschendorf-Tuchenbach administrative association. This became in 1998 when the municipality of Puschendorf left the administrative community of Obermichelbach-Tuchenbach . In 1979 the multi-purpose building with town hall and fire station was inaugurated. In 1997 the citizens' hall was built, into which the town hall is also integrated.

The administrative headquarters of the Obermichelbach-Tuchenbach administrative association was relocated from Tuchenbach to the Obermichelbach administrative building in 2002.
