history

Starting position

The Asbach mayor's office, together with the Altenwied and Neustadt mayor's offices, emerged after 1815 from the Altenwied administrative office in Cologne, which had existed since the middle of the 13th century .

The rule of Kurköln ended in 1803 with the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss . The area of ​​the Altenwied office was initially assigned to the Principality of Wied-Runkel , became part of the Duchy of Nassau in 1806 due to the Rhine Confederation Act and, after the Congress of Vienna in 1815, to the Kingdom of Prussia .

With regard to local administration, the Prussian government took over the existing structures, which, however, differed in details due to the different previous rule relationships. In the area of ​​the mayor's offices Altenwied, Asbach and Neustadt, honnships as an early form of communities had already formed in the Middle Ages . The term "Honnschaft" was retained for the time being. It was not until the municipal regulations for the Rhine Province of July 23, 1845 that the uniform designation “ municipality ” was regulated .

Changes

The mayor's office of Asbach initially included the Elsaff, Griesenbach, Krautscheid and Limbach communities. The place Asbach as a church village was originally not a monastery.

Due to the dissolution of the Altenwied mayor's office in 1823 and the reorganization of the two other mayor's offices created from the former Altenwied office, Windhagen and Rederscheid were assigned to the Asbach mayor. At the same time Schöneberg was separated from the Neustadt mayor and incorporated into the Asbach mayor.

Office Asbach

The Asbach mayor's office was renamed in 1927, like all rural mayor's offices in the Rhine Province , to “Amt Asbach” due to the Prussian law regulating various points of the municipal constitutional law of December 27, 1927.

Association municipality of Asbach

As part of the Rhineland-Palatinate administrative and territorial reform that began in the mid-1960s, the Asbach office was converted into the Asbach Association on October 1, 1968 , for the time being without any changes in the affiliation of the communities. On November 7, 1970, the association communities Asbach and Neustadt (Wied) were dissolved and the current association community Asbach was newly formed.
