The community also has 5 traditional rural land units, known in German as Gemarkungen, named Grub, Halbersdorf, Schönbrunn i.Steigerwald, Steinsdorf and Zettmannsdorf, the same names as 5 of the constituent communities (it is traditional for a Gemarkung to be named after a town or village lying nearby).
The Bamberg bishop Berthold von Leiningen (1257–1285) acquired the castle and the village of Schönbrunn in 1280. The Amt established here was bit by bit slowly incorporated into the Amt of Burgebrach between the early 16th and mid 18th century. As part of the High Monastery at Bamberg, it passed with the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss of 1803 to Bavaria. In the course of administrative reform in Bavaria, today’s community came into being under the Gemeindeedikt (“Community Edict”) of 1818.
