history
The place was first mentioned in 835. In the 13th century the local rule was presumably with the Lords of Justingen . In 1294 the property in Waldhausen was sold to the Heiligkreuztal monastery . In 1300 the monastery acquired another estate from the Counts of Grüningen-Landau and later held the manorial rule . In the 16th century at the latest, the high jurisdiction lay with the county of Sigmaringen as the owner of the monastery vogtei .
With the monastery, as a result of the secularization, the place came to Württemberg in 1803 , where it was initially subordinated to the Oberamt Heiligkreuztal and in 1807 to the Oberamt Riedlingen .
During the municipal reform in Baden-Württemberg , the formerly independent municipality of Waldhausen was incorporated into the municipality of Altheim on July 1, 1974.
