The village developed in the late Middle Ages around the castle with the same name. Already in the 15<sup>th</sup> century it was designated as a town (Markt).

The colours are known since 1562 and are the colours of Bayern. Later the colours changed, but during the last century the old colours were restored. | The village developed in the late Middle Ages around the castle with the same name.
