Mentioned in 1305 as the property of Windberg Monastery , Gut Schmelmerhof has been family- owned since 1630. The Romantik Hotel Gut Schmelmerhof was opened in 1967 and has 52 rooms and suites as well as a vaulted restaurant from 1864. Other tourist offers include the Fuchshof , which has been in the family since 1665, and the Landgasthof Hotel Zum Hirschenstein . The St. Wolfgang branch church was built in 1953 by Hans Beckers . Next to it is the cemetery laid out by Adolf Neuhofer.

In the vicinity of Rettenbach, BMW planned to set up a 5.22 hectare driver training area for off-road vehicles, which was to be spun off from the Bavarian Forest Nature Park . The project was approved by the district council in 2005. Although the necessary aisles had already been made, BMW abandoned the project in 2007 following criticism from environmental and nature conservationists.
