The village was first mentioned in 1006 in a document from King Henry II. In it he gave his chaplain Dietrich possessions in Burnaccherun. The name Börnecke (Brunnenacker) is derived from a sulfur-containing spring on the northern slope of the Seeberg. According to legend, a hermit is said to have performed miracle cures there, which resulted in a large influx of sick people.
