In 1845 it was reclassified to the Girkhausen office.

In the early Middle Ages, Schüllar was not a village in the true sense of the word, but only consisted of a monastery and its outbuildings. The foundations of the actual monastery are probably under a residential building in the center of the village and represent its cellar. The former location of the medieval church in the village is unknown, but geographical research in the region has shown that under the part of Schüllar, in which the location of the church is assumed, several cavities are located. This indicates a system of several crypts in which higher clergymen, for example abbots, were buried.

The place was incorporated into Bad Berleburg on January 1, 1975 on the occasion of the municipal area reform according to the provisions of the Sauerland-Paderborn Law .
