history

Before 1794, all localities in the administrative district of the mayor's office belonged to the Duchy of Luxembourg ( Quartier Vianden ), Muxerath to the County of Vianden , the other places to the lordship of Neuerburg . Lahr was the main town of a dairy whose administrative area included three localities. In 1794 French revolutionary troops occupied the Austrian Netherlands , to which the Duchy of Luxembourg belonged, and annexed it in October 1795 . Under French administration , the area belonged to the canton of Neuerburg , which administratively belonged to the arrondissement of Bitburg in the department of forests .

Due to the resolutions at the Congress of Vienna in 1815, the former Luxembourg area east of the Sauer and Our was 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, the administrative districts of the French Mairies were generally retained for the time being. The mayor's office in Lahr corresponded to the previous Mairie Lahr. The mayor's office in Lahr existed until 1860 and became part of the mayor's office in Neuerburg-Land .

All localities are now administratively part of the Südeifel community in the Eifel district of Bitburg-Prüm in Rhineland-Palatinate .
