Fischbach is located in the southeast of Nuremberg in the Lorenzer Reichswald and is traversed by the Fischbach.

History

Fischbach was first mentioned in a document in 1339 with the name “Fischpekken”. In Fischbach, a Zeidelgut was created by Reich servicemen as part of the development of the Reichswald around Nuremberg. As castle men of the burgraves of Nuremberg, the “Vischebekken von Vischebach”, first mentioned in 1330, were entrusted with the castle guard at the Nuremberg Imperial Castle from 1339.[5] Around 1350 they became over-indebted and had to sell their possessions to the imperial city. Their likely seat was probably at the location of the Harsdorf seat.

The village was set on fire by the Count Palatine's troops during the Feud between the city of Nuremberg and the Margrave Albrecht Achilles of Brandenburg-Ansbach in 1449.  It was burned down again in the Second Margrave War.  The Harsdorf'sche Schloss and the Peller Castle were also completely destroyed.  During the Thirty Years' War, Fischbach was also exposed to arson and looting.  After the war, numerous Austrian exiles settled there.[6]
