history

In 1124 a "Pucco de Wannebach" was mentioned in a document. This is also the oldest evidence for Wannbach, which was the seat of this lower nobility. The defining word of the place name is the name Wanno of the founder of the settlement. The Lords of Wannbach originally had the manorial rule over the place. In 1493, the siblings Georg, Christoph and Elsbet von Wambach sold their uncle Konz von Egloffstein for 12,000 & gulden to free the castle and all its belonging . In 1525 the castle was completely destroyed in the Peasants' War.

In 1505 the place came to the Bamberg diocese and was subordinate to the Bamberg office of Ebermannstadt . In 1764 the Counts of Seinsheim were enfeoffed with Wannbach. Of particular importance was the cattle trade, which at that time was carried out by the Jews living there.

With the Gemeindeedikt (early 19th century) which was Rural Municipality When Bach formed. In administration and jurisdiction, it was subject to the Ebermannstadt district court , in financial administration to the Breitenbach Rent Office and in voluntary jurisdiction to the Pretzfeld Patrimonial Court . The municipality had an area of 1,982 km².

On July 1, 1976, Wannbach was incorporated into Pretzfeld with the regional reform .
