 The monastery of Hirsau later bought the village as a fief and sold it in 1284 to the monastery of Bebenhausen.In the same year, Bönnigheim was granted the status of a so-called "Ganerbentum" (community of joint owners), and in 1288 the fief was passed to Rudolf von Habsburg, who in turn granted it to his son, Albrecht von Löwenstein-Schenkenberg, in 1291.The estate that had emerged from the so-called "Ganerbentum", which lasted until 1750, became partitioned through inheritance, marriage and purchase.
