In 1802 it fell to the County of Hohenlohe-Bartenstein . When the Hohenlohe Lands lost their independence in the course of the Rhine Confederation Act , Mulfingen came to the Kingdom of Württemberg in 1806 .

20th century

During the time of the Nazi dictatorship , children of " gypsies " and "gypsy-like children" from other children's and educational homes in Württemberg were admitted to the St. Josefspflege children's home in Mulfingen .
