Until secularization in 1803, the market belonged to the Bishopric of Bamberg, which from 1500 was part of the Franconian Imperial Circle. Since then, the Franconian town has been part of the state of Bavaria.

Well-known sights include:

the parish church of St. Martin, built between 1827 and 1844 by Franz Joseph Schirlinger, with a Gothic tower from 1305, a portal by Leo von Klenze, which is very unusual for rural churches in the region, and ceiling paintings by Kaspar Schleibner, the Jägersburg, a baroque hunting lodge of the prince-bishops of Bamberg
