history
Böhl presumably originated in the seventh or eighth century as a Franconian foundation. The place was first mentioned in 780 in a document from the Lorsch monastery as Buhilo . In 985 the place was victim of the Salian church robbery . Together with Iggelheim and Haßloch, Böhl belonged to a group of imperial villages that Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian pledged to the Count Palatine from 1330 onwards. Until the beginning of French rule in 1797, Böhl and the neighboring Iggelheim remained under Electoral Palatinate rule, only interrupted by belonging to the Duchy of Pfalz-Zweibrücken from 1410 to 1507. In 1379, Brühl was pledged by the Count Palatine to the Count of Leiningen . During the Thirty Years' War , Böhl was plundered and partially burned down by mercenary armies (Spaniards, Swedes) passing through. Until the French Revolution , Böhl belonged to both the Electoral Palatinate and Leiningen-Dagsburg .
From 1798 to 1814, when the Palatinate was part of the French Republic (until 1804) and then part of the Napoleonic Empire , Böhl was incorporated into the canton of Mutterstadt and had its own Mairie . In 1815 the place had 1200 inhabitants. In the same year it was added to Austria . Just one year later, the place, like the entire Palatinate, changed to the Kingdom of Bavaria. From 1818 to 1862 he was a member of the Landkommissariat Speyer ; from this the district office of Speyer emerged. From 1886 Böhl was part of the newly created district office of Ludwigshafen .
In 1928 Böhl had 2,430 inhabitants who lived in 459 residential buildings. Both the Catholics and the Protestants each had their own parish on site. Since 1939 the place has been part of the district of Ludwigshafen am Rhein , which has been called Rhein-Pfalz-Kreis since 2004 . After the Second World War , Böhl became part of the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate within the French occupation zone . In the course of the first administrative reform in Rhineland-Palatinate , on June 7, 1969, Böhl was merged with the neighboring municipality of Iggelheim to form the new local municipality of Böhl-Iggelheim .
religion
From 1840 there was a synagogue on site , which fell victim to the November pogroms of 1938 . The Jews living in Böhl were buried in Haßloch .

There are a total of 35 objects on site that are under monument protection , including the former station building, the water tower and a half-timbered house on Kirchenstrasse .
Infrastructure
Since 1847 Böhl has owned a train station on the south-eastern edge of the settlement on the Mannheim – Saarbrücken railway line , which emerged from the Palatinate Ludwig Railway , which was completed in 1849 . In the first years of its existence it was called Böhl , which was later changed to Böhl-Iggelheim . The Salier cycle path also runs through the village. Bundesautobahn 65 runs two kilometers northwest of the settlement area , and for a short time it touches the local area.
There is also a primary school in the village. With Palatia Böhl there is also a football club in town.
In 1927, the district savings bank Ludwigshafen am Rhein opened an acceptance point for savings deposits in Böhl. From 1930 to 1934, the town's water supply was built, the centerpiece of which is the striking water tower. There is also an industrial park on the southern edge of the settlement.
