Unter-Rinach Castle, which the village name references, was probably built in the 12th century. It was the family seat of the lords of Rinach, who were vassals of the Habsburgs. The castle was destroyed in the Battle of Sempach by the Swiss and was never rebuilt.

The first reference to Burg was in 1412 when two farms that were "by the castle" (Шаблон:Lang-de) were mentioned. As early as 1400, the Zwing und Bann or manor rights were divided evenly between the Teutonic Order and the family of the Schultheiss of Lenzburg. From 1415 until 1798 the village was under the authority of the city of Bern. It was part of the Oberamt or district of Lenzburg, and the court of Reinach.
