history

middle Ages

In 1219 the place was first mentioned as Rauenburc . In 1379 there was another documentary mention as Rauenberg . The root word rough indicates a wooded place. It is a clearing settlement from the High Middle Ages in a forest belonging to the Archdiocese of Mainz . Rauenberg originally belonged to the tenth in Bürgstadt . In 1219 a Heinrich von Rauenberg was mentioned. Before 1379 the local rule was with the German Order Coming Procelten. Later the place was loaned from the diocese of Mainz to the Rüdt von Collenberg .

Modern times

In 1659 the place fell to the diocese of Mainz and from then on belonged to the Oberamt Miltenberg. In 1803 the place fell to the Löwenstein-Wertheim-Virneburg in the course of secularization through the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss , before it became Baden in 1806 through the determination of the Rhine Federation Act. From 1813 to 1938 Rauenberg belonged to the office and later district office Wertheim, then from 1938 to the district of Tauberbischofsheim , which in turn became part of the newly formed Main-Tauber district on January 1, 1973 .

Rauenberg originally belonged to the Nassig parish in the 16th century . Through the Counter Reformation, the place came to Freudenberg in the 17th century. 1669 mentions its own pastoral care.
