The place was first mentioned in writing in the Fraisch book under the mountains of 1604 as "Gottesgab". Judging by the name, the property was probably a gift made to the church.[3]
Towards the end of the 18th century there were four estates in Gottesgab (castle, farm, sheep farm, 1 good). The high court was exercised by the Brandenburg-Bayreuth caste and jurisdiction office in Dachsbach. The manor of Gottesgab was in charge of the village and community and the landlordship of all properties.[4]
From 1797 to 1810 the place was subject to the Justice Office Dachsbach and Chamber Office Neustadt. As part of the municipal edict, Gottesgab was initially assigned to the tax district of Cairolindach formed in 1811, then in 1813 to the newly created tax district and the rural community of Birnbaum. With the second municipal edict (1818), it was assigned to the newly formed rural community of Peppen Höchstädt.[5] On January 1, 1972, Gottesgab was incorporated into Uehlfeld as part of the local government reform.
