Old fortifications northwest of Gumpertsham dating back to around 500 BC bear witness to Celtic settlement in the area. In earlier times, the settlement of Arget was called Aragartin. According to one theory, this name may have originated from Roman cult sites. More information about the place can be found here: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arget_(Sauerlach)
