history
The presumably medieval name is traced back to the name of an unknown Roger or Ruger. The first documentary mention of Rögens is dated to the year 1317 with the register of property rights of Count Berthold von Henneberg in the "New Lordship". In 1496 Albrecht von Brandenstein acquired the settlement together with Lützelbuch from Valentin Schenk. Until the beginning of the 19th century, the inhabitants were lendable to the von Brandenstein family.
After the parish of Fechheim was initially responsible for Rögen, from 1517 the village belonged to the parish of the Einberg parish . In 1820 Rögen was incorporated into Seidmannsdorf.
The school in Einberg, built around 1590, was also responsible for the students from Rögen. Later the place got a private tutor position, afterwards the association school in Seidmannsdorf was responsible. Due to the large number of students, in 1885 there were 20 Rögener and 64 Lützelbuch children, the two communities in Lützelbuch built a joint school, which was inaugurated on May 15, 1884 and was used until the 1968/69 school year.
In 1783 the village consisted of 14 houses with 72 inhabitants, in 1910 there were 112, in 1939 108 inhabitants and in 1968 169 inhabitants lived in 33 houses. On January 1, 1972, with 307 hectares of parish area and 180 inhabitants, it was incorporated into Coburg.
