The Trier-Land is a Rhineland-Palatinate municipality in the district of Trier-Saarburg and has its administrative headquarters in the independent city of Trier . The association community includes the eleven independent local communities Aach , Franzenheim , Hockweiler , Igel , Kordel , Langsur , Newel , Ralingen , Trierweiler , Welschbillig and Zemmer , which are located in the vicinity of the city of Trier.
Geographical location
The administrative area of the Verbandsgemeinde extends from the Sauertal (in the west, border with Luxembourg ) to the Kylltal (in the east). To the north it extends to the Fidei (area around Zemmer and the border with the Eifel district Bitburg-Prüm ). In the south it borders on the Moselle and the city of Trier .
The two local parishes of Hockweiler and Franzenheim , which are the only parishes of the "Old Office of Trier-Land" to the right of the Moselle, that were not incorporated into the city of Trier during the 1969/1970 regional reform, also belong to the Trier-Land association. As the “exclave” of the association, they are around ten kilometers from the core area of the association, southeast of the city of Trier.

history
In the course of the administrative reform begun in the second half of the 1960s, the previous Trier-Land office , as well as all offices in the administrative districts of Koblenz and Trier , were converted into association communities on October 1, 1968 . The community of Trier-Land in its current form came into being in 1969/1970, when a large part of the communities from the previous offices of Welschbillig and Ehrang were integrated into the Trier-Land community.

Attractions
Traces of the Roman past can be seen in the community, for example the Igel Column , which has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage since 1986 , or the Roman long wall . Among the sacred monuments, the Romanesque choir tower church St. Abrunculus from the 12th century in Beßlich and the baroque church St. Remigius in Butzweiler are noteworthy. The Pützlöcher , originally a Roman copper mine, later a quarry for the Cologne Cathedral and others , are one of the oldest preserved mines in Germany. As for castles, Ramstein Castle in the Kylltal and Welschbillig Castle are worth mentioning. You can also find single houses in many places , mostly from the 19th century.
