Thalhausen Castle after a copper engraving by Michael Wening 1701–1726

Talahusun appears for the first time in a document from Freising Bishop Waldo , in which he exchanged lands in Thalhausen with Bishop Zacharias von Brixen in the years 883–906 . Wittelsbacher Ministeriale , called "von Thalhausen" , was first mentioned around 1150 . The area is administered by the District Court of Kranzberg . In 1358 the Pullinger family was run as the lords of Thalhausen, and in 1554 the male line died out. In 1555, Lorenz Pronner, who married the last woman from Pullinger, received the area and achieved the Hofmark Justice for life. This included the lower jurisdiction as well as the right to compulsory service and taxes towards the subjects. From this point on, one can speak of a Hofmark Thalhausen, although there was never a special Hofmark survey; rather, the court righteousness was repeatedly transferred to the respective owners for life. At the end of the 15th century there are reports of a castle that was rebuilt at the end of the 17th century. In 1707 the new St. Anna Palace Chapel, an octagonal central building with a slim onion dome, was inaugurated. In 1786, Count Maximilian Karl Theodor von Holnstein acquired the Hofmark with the castle and brewery; the castle was owned by their family until 1988, the brewery - whose dark beer Fürst Bismarck was so impressed with that he had it sent to him - was closed in 1923.

In 1817 the Hofmarksrechte were dissolved and converted into a second class patrimonial court . In the context of the 2nd community edict of 1818, Thalhausen with the suburbs Ampertshausen, Neuhausen, Oberberghausen, Oberthalhausen and Dorfacker became a patrimonial community. The last noble privileges were abolished with the abolition of the patrimonial courts in 1848.
