The local rule with considerable property was passed in 1447 from the Counts of Helfenstein to Württemberg . The possession of the monastery Elchingen came in 1343 to the German order commander Ulm . In addition, the hospital in Ulm had been wealthy since 1490 and that of Stadion since 1539. The share of the latter was sold to the Altshausen German Order Coming in 1700 .
