In the Stadtkirche of Römhild is the tomb of Elisabeth (a daughter of Albrecht III Achilles, Elector of Brandenburg) and Hermann VIII of Henneberg. The grave has sometimes been attributed to Herman Vischer the Younger (c.1486–1517), a member of the Vischer Family of Nuremberg. {{clear}}
The name is first attested in Medieval Latin in 800 AD as ''locus Rotmulte'' in the annals of Fulda Abbey.
