For a long time it was believed that the hall church was Charlemagne's palatine chapel. Archaeological excavations from 1960 to 1963 showed, however, that the church was not built until after the year 900, under Ottonian rule. However, the latest charcoal samples from the foundation date the church to the years 1027-1154, i.e. the time of the Salians. In 2004 archaeologists found two early medieval predecessor buildings to the north of the hall church during excavations. They probably served Charlemagne and the following rulers as a small…

The village owes its origin to the Neue Baumburg (Novo Boinburc), which was founded by the Raugrafen in 1253 and whose ruins still characterise the townscape today.
