Several barrows were discovered near the Heckholzhäuser sports field in the direction of Merenberg, which can be assigned to the transition from the Hallstatt period to the La Tène period.
Due to the part of the name -hausen (at the houses) there is a continuous settlement of the place since the Merovingian settlement period around the 6th / 7th. Century.
