history

All localities in the administrative district of the mayor's office Zerf belonged to the duchy of Luxembourg until the end of the 18th century , Köllig, Nittel, Rehlingen, Temmels and Wellen to the provost of Grevenmacher , Fisch and Wincheringen to the dominion Wincheringen (district Remich). A part of Rehlingen belonged to the Electorate of Trier . After 1792 French revolutionary troops occupied the Austrian Netherlands , to which the Duchy of Luxembourg belonged, and in 1795 incorporated it into French territory . When the then new French administrative structure was introduced, the villages were assigned to the canton of Grevenmacher in the Department of Forests . As a result of the so-called Wars of Liberation , the region was initially subordinated to an Austrian-Bavarian administration in 1814 and provisionally assigned to the Canton of Konz in the Saar department. Unlike the rest of the left bank of the Rhine, this was initially assigned to Austria at the Congress of Vienna (1815) . In the Second Peace of Paris , Austria ceded the territory to the Kingdom of Prussia with effect from July 1, 1816 .

Under the Prussian administration, new administrative districts and districts were formed in 1816 , the mayor's office Nittel belonged to the Saarburg district in the administrative district of Trier and from 1822 to the Rhine province .

On January 1, 1879, the mayorships of Nittel and Kanzem , which had already been administered in personal union from 1824, were dissolved and the communities assigned to the new mayor's office of Tavern .

Wincheringen is now part of the administrative community of Saarburg , all other places of the community of Konz in the district of Trier-Saarburg in Rhineland-Palatinate .
