The village of Eschau was a possession of the Counts of Rieneck until 1559. The counts also granted the town rights in 1285. From 1559-1806 the town was a possession of the Counts of Erbach. The town did not have the right to use its own seal, even though it was a fortified town, with an important seat of justice. | The village of Eschau was a possession of the Counts of Rieneck until 1559.
