    Haig was first mentioned in a document in the first half of the 14th century. From the beginning it belonged to the Bishopric of Bamberg. The foundation stone of Haiger Castle was laid in 1731.

    Towards the end of the 18th century, Haig and Neumühle formed a community consisting of 33 properties (8 Fronsölden, 23 drip houses, 1 drip house with economy, 1 mill). The High Court exercised the Bamberg Centamt Kronach. The Haig Manor had the village and community rule as well as the manorial rule over all properties. In addition to the property, there was a castle, a leaseholder's house and a brewery, all stately buildings (Wikipedia).
