history

Until the church is planted

Rechtenbach was mentioned for the first time on August 18, 1522 in a document from Count Philipp von Rieneck and was an industrial settlement in which flat glass was produced for the mirrors of the Lohr state manufacture until 1791. Rechtenbach came to the newly formed Principality of Aschaffenburg as part of the Archbishopric Mainz in the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss 1803 , which became a department of the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt from 1810 . In 1814 Rechtenbach fell to Bavaria . In the course of the administrative reforms in Bavaria, today's municipality was created with the municipal edict of 1818 .

Administrative history

In 1862 the district office Lohr am Main was formed, on whose administrative area Rechtenbach was located. In 1939, as everywhere in the German Reich, the designation district was introduced. Rechtenbach was then one of the 26 communities in the Lohr am Main district . With the dissolution of the district of Lohr am Main, Rechtenbach came to the newly formed district of Mittelmain on July 1, 1972, which ten months later received its final name, district of Main-Spessart .

As of January 1, 2014, the uninhabited community-free area of Rothenberg was incorporated. This increased the area of ​​the municipality from 2.09 to 7.27 km². As a result of the incorporation, the community area became a contiguous area and the former uninhabited exclave Weickertswiese in the northwest with an area of ​​96 hectares lost its exclave status, although it only has a five-meter-long border with the Rothenberg district.
