Since 1 January 2010, it has been a part of the town Allstedt.
The earliest known reference to the village is in a record from AD 899, where it is referred to as Ninstat.
It is the home of the two men with the "world's longest family tree" [1]. Manfred Huchthausen, a teacher, and Uwe Lange, a surveyor, both have the same rare DNA pattern as that found in the skeletal material of a man whose bones were found in a cave in nearby Lichtenstein dating to about 1000 BC.
