history
Historically, the municipality belonged to the Brüggen office of the Duchy of Jülich . Already at this time a dualism developed between the parish and spots Waldniel and the surrounding purely agricultural villages, which were called "Kirspelwaldniel", whereby Kirspel is a Lower Franconian form of the word " parish ". During the French period in 1800 the two independent Mairien Burgwaldniel (from the French bourg = patch) and Kirspelwaldniel were formed. Coming under Prussian rule in 1815, the French Mairien continued to exist as mayors in the Kempen district.
However, the constant dualism also led to several processes between the two communities. From 1816 there were disputes over the area of the Waldnieler Heide, in 1821 these led to several court hearings, the so-called Heideprozesse. These lasted from 1821 to 1835. Ultimately, the Waldnieler Heide was divided into Kirspelwaldniel and Fleck Waldniel in 1821 according to the number of fireplaces available. For Kirspel that made up 693 1/2 acres of land with 282 fire places.
Kirspelwaldniel had to fight hard for his independence. Since 1800 it was considered independent, but the municipality only had its own mayor until 1823. After that it was under the mayor Waldniels until 1849. Between 1849 and 1889 under the mayor Dülkens and until 1905 under the direction of the honorary mayor Clemens. Until 1915, the mayor Waldniels ruled over Kirspelwaldniel again.
On April 1, 1915, the three communities Burgwaldniel, Kirspelwaldniel and Lüttelforst were merged to form the new community and mayor's office Waldniel . Waldniel in turn merged with Amern in 1970 to form the Schwalmtal community.
