A lot of buildings in the area surrounding Donzdorf were built using this sandstone which had a particular high amount of iron and was therefore very resilient.

In 1478 the Lords of Rechberg built an administration building in the town and shortly afterwards began construction on the Gothic St. Martin's church.

Her son expanded the castle to make it his main residence and created the garden following the French design.

[7] On 1 May 1976 Donzdorf was awarded city rights after reaching the population limit of ten thousand because of the incorporation.

Donzdorf is also the origin of Nuclear Blast, one of the biggest Heavy Metal record labels in the world.

Originally planned as a French garden for Donzdorf Castle by Maximilian von Rechberg, the park features a fountain and many bronze statues.
