The latter also included the high-lying residential area Tromm in the far west , which on October 1, 1955, with 23 inhabitants from the municipality of Affolterbach, was reunited. As part of the regional reform in Hesse , Scharbach was incorporated into the Grasellenbach community on August 1, 1972.
