History



Medieval


The earliest known mention to the town is from 1232.[3]


Early Modern


In September 1634 three weeks after their biggest victory of the war at Nördlingen the Catholics under Jan von Werth landed another big win over Sweden at the Battle of Willstätt.
In August 1643 Imperialist forces took the town's castle.[4] On 1 August 1675, during the Rhineland campaign of the 1672-1678 Franco-Dutch War, a French army under Comte de Lorges and an Imperial force led by Raimondo Montecuccoli fought a battle nearby at Altenheim, Neuried.

On October 30, 1754, the tower of the Lutheran church, which was to be planned to be inaugurated on this day collapsed and destroyed many parts of the church as result of a bad foundation. It was later rebuilt with a foundation consisting of oak pillars and the inauguration of the church took then place on November 11, 1756.
