The nucleus of the place was a Roman fort from the 2nd century, which was built to protect against the Alemanni at the northernmost point of the Rhaetian Limes. After the forced retreat of the Romans after the year 260, the land on the middle Altmühl was free for new settlements. Celto-Roman population is likely to have mixed with Germanic immigrants such as Burgundians and Thuringians.

There is nothing more to see today, because the fort, which was located roughly on today's church square, is completely overbuilt. The Limes ran right through today's city, the remains of the Limes in the Burgstallwald are definitely worth a visit - after all, this is where the northernmost point of the Rätschen Limes is located.
