history

The localities in the administrative district of the mayor's office Bleialf belonged to the Principality of Prüm before 1794 and to the Electoral Trier district of Prüm since the second half of the 18th century and were assigned to the Bleialf mayor's office. Parts of Buchet, Niederlascheid and Radscheid belonged to the Schönberg dominion or, most recently, to the Schönberg Electoral Trier and were administered from Amelscheid (now part of Sankt Vith in Belgium ). In 1794 French revolutionary troops occupied the left bank of the Rhine . Under French administration , the above-mentioned localities were assigned to the canton of Schönberg from 1798 , which belonged to the Prüm arrondissement in the Saardepartement .

Due to the resolutions at the Congress of Vienna in 1815, substantial parts of the Rhineland were assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia . Under the Prussian administration, new administrative districts and districts were formed in 1816 ; on the left bank of the Rhine, Prussia generally retained the administrative districts of the French Mairies for the time being. The mayorry Bleialf corresponded to the previous Mairie Bleialf. Under the Prussian administration, the mayor Bleialf to part circle Prüm in Trier and from 1822 to the Rhine province .
