History and population

Feuchtenbach was first mentioned in a document in 1140. Feuchtenbach could have originated together with the church in Altenfelden between 1100 and 1200. The place name is derived from a stream with "Feichten" (spruce).

In 1788 there were 12 houses in Unterfeuchtenbach. In 1869, 73 people lived here in 14 houses. By 1910 the population increased slightly, with 89 inhabitants in 15 houses in that year. The population of the settlement called a village was exclusively Catholic. In 1923 the population was 85 people, with the number of buildings remaining the same. However, the statistics differentiated between the group of six houses with 41 residents and a single farm with 11 residents. In 1951, 88 people lived in 13 houses in Unterfeuchtenbach, a distinction being made between the hamlet of Unterfeuchtenbach with 853 inhabitants in seven houses and the scattered settlement of six houses with 28 inhabitants. These numbers also changed until 1971, with Unterfeuchtenbach having 84 residents and 14 buildings that year. There were 50 residents and eight houses in the hamlet and 34 residents with six houses in the scattered settlement. After that, the population began to decline. In 1981 there were 68 residents in Unterfeuchtenbach, with the hamlet comprising ten buildings with 43 residents and the scattered settlement nine buildings with 25 residents. After the number of residents had recovered again in 1991 to 82 in 21 houses, the population then fell to 66 in 2001 in 21 houses, in 2011 there were only 60 inhabitants.
