 After the extinction of the Groschlag male lineage, the village would have passed to the Archbishopric of Mainz but the population refused to accept this transition and paid homage to the daughters of the Groschlag family instead.The minister of the archbishopric, von Albini, consequently occupied the village with a force of 50 hussars.In 1806, the village fell to the Grand Duchy of Hesse.
