history

Wildensee was first mentioned in writing in 1241 as Wildenseve . The name means something like "relocation into the wild". The place emerged as a rafting village at a time when wood was being transported to the Elsava Valley as building material . The remains of a Trift dam can still be seen on the Aubach .

In 1862 the Obernburg District Office was formed, on whose administrative area Wildensee was located. However, on January 1, 1880, Wildensee came to the Marktheidenfeld district office on the occasion of the reform of the layout of the Bavarian district offices and returned to the Obernburg district office on July 1, 1883. As everywhere in the German Reich , the term district was introduced in 1939. Wildensee was now one of the 35 communities in the district of Obernburg am Main (later OBB license plate ). With the dissolution of the district of Obernburg, Wildensee came to the newly formed district of Miltenberg in 1972 (license plate MIL ).

On January 1, 1978, the previously independent community of Wildensee, with an area of ​​2 km², which had been enlarged on April 1, 1977 to include parts of the community of Altenbuch ("Wildenseer Höfe") with about 25 inhabitants at the time, was moved to the Eschau market incorporated.
