Albrecht the Handsome from the House of Hohenzollern and Burgrave of Nuremberg bought the Altdorf Care Office together with the hamlet from his nephew Johann von Nassau . The deed of sale dated June 27, 1360 is the oldest surviving historical document about the place. From 1504 to 1806 it belonged to the territory of the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg. In August 1632 Croatians , who served as mercenaries on the side of the Catholic League under General Tilly during the Thirty Years' War , approached from Wellitz people from Altdorf, but did not take the city.

With the community edict (1808) Unterwellitzleithen belonged to the politically independent community Röthenbach . On January 1, 1978, this was incorporated into Altdorf as part of the Bavarian regional reform .
