History

Aiterhofen has been inhabited since the Neolithic period, as the discovery of the largest Linear Pottery cemetery in Germany shows (about 260 graves ) in Aiterhofen / Ödmühle.

773 AD Aiterhofen was mentioned as Villa Eitraha for the first time as agilolfingischer Herzogshof documented. About the 973 comes another mention as Eitarahoue, so courtyard at the Eiterach. A chronicler of the 11th century the name falsely interpreted as a court of the poison ( = pus ). But the actual meaning is derived from the Indo- oid for swell and the Old High German aha terms for water and yard for property from. So the place name means something like " properties on swelling watercourse ," which the reference is made to the river Aiterach.
