History

edit

The village was first mentioned in a document on February 28, 1135.[1] Various secular and spiritual rulers owned the place. According to a description in a document from Margrave Dietrich von Landsberg from 1278, part of the place belonged to the Naumburg ward of Schönburg Castle, from which the office of Schönburg developed in the late Middle Ages.[2]
