The name Algarheim itself originally comes from a large farm in the area. Algarheim had its own general store and post office until the end of the 1990s. The place also has its own public kindergarten and primary school Algarheim School.

The place was heavily developed from the mid-1970s with new housing estates consisting of villas, as well as a new primary school.
