history

Neuenahr mayor

After the later Rhine province was taken over by the Kingdom of Prussia (1815), the districts established in 1816 were divided into several mayor's offices , to which several municipalities were usually assigned.

The administrative district of the mayor's office of Neuenahr originally belonged to the mayor's office of Ahrweiler .

After the city ​​ordinance for the Rhine Province came into effect on May 15, 1856, the city of Ahrweiler left the mayor's association on March 2, 1857 and formed its own urban administrative district. The rural communities of Gimmigen (then Gimmingen ), Heimersheim, Lohrsdorf, Kirchdaun and Wadenheim formed the new mayor's office "Ahrweiler-Land". It was administered in personal union by the mayor of the city of Ahrweiler, Josef Wilhelm Clotten.

In 1874, the community of Wadenheim suggested separating from Ahrweiler due to its development into a health resort. By order of January 26, 1875, the royal government, Department of the Interior, decided in Koblenz to abolish the personal union and to set up a special rural mayor's office with its seat in Wadenheim. A little later, the municipality of Wadenheim , which was formed from the three localities of Wadenheim , Beul and Hemmessen , was authorized by royal approval on June 9, 1875 to use the name "Municipality of Neuenahr".

Since then, the mayor's office has also been called "Neuenahr", and the mayor's seat was in the Wadenheim district.

In the administrative area of ​​the mayor's office in Neuenahr lived a total of 4,278 inhabitants in 899 households in 1885; 2,125 of the residents were male and 2,153 female. Regarding religious affiliation, 4,081 were Catholic and 158 were Protestant; the total of 38 Jews lived in Heimersheim and Neuenahr.

Bad Neuenahr office

Since 1927 the community was allowed to use the name "Bad Neuenahr".

On the basis of the Prussian " Law on the Regulation of Various Points of Municipal Constitutional Law " of December 27, 1927, all rural mayor offices were renamed.

The Bad Neuenahr office that was created in this way also existed after 1946 in the newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate until the reorganization of the Bad Neuenahr community in 1968.

Bad Neuenahr commune

In the course of the Rhineland-Palatinate functional and territorial reform on October 1, 1968, all offices in the then administrative district of Koblenz were converted into association communities .

The provisional Verbandsgemeinde Bad Neuenahr had the same territorial status and the same municipality allocation as the Mayor's Office Ahrweiler-Land from 1857. On June 7, 1969, the Verbandsgemeinde Bad Neuenahr was finally dissolved, the associated municipalities merged into the newly formed town of Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler .
