Until the 9th century, the settlement of the territory of the Babenbergs belonged. The local viticulture and the establishment of a church should go back to this noble family. Frickenhausen then passed to the Bishopric of Würzburg in the way of a gift, after the Counts of Babenberg property was forfeited to the Reich as a result of Babenberg feud. This donation is documented in a charter of King Louis the Child from the year 903 the king gave the bishopric of Würzburg church and royal property in Frickenhausen. So it should be compensated for the devastation caused by Adalbert von Babenberg.

In 1642, a cattle market was associated with the fair. All visitors who participated in the Frick housing market, the Holy Roman Empire of the screen and escort was assured.

1475 built the cathedral chapter a large winery. In the second half of the 15th century also a massive fortifications with walls and towers was created. The late medieval city wall includes the place in an approximately rectangular outline and has been preserved in its entire extent. In the 16th century the parish church of St. Gallus, a hall with three naves and the adjacent town hall were built in the late Gothic style.

In particular, the viticulture flourished on the limestone soils on the slopes to the Main. Many noble families and spiritual lords acquired wine cellar in Frickenhausen. It magnificent half-timbered houses were built. Then also emerged some representative patrician houses in the Baroque period.
