 To Reipoltskirchen's southeast once lay an estate named Hundheim (or Hundheim am Steg), not to be confused with the still existent Offenbach-Hundheim.It was the seat of a "Hun" or "Hund", as it was customary to call an "Untervogt" in the Middle Ages.There are other relationships that lead researchers to believe that Reipoltskirchen was once such an official's seat.
