history

Before 1794, all localities in the administrative district of the mayor's office belonged to the Binscheid dairy in the Dasburg lordship , which was part of the Duchy of Luxembourg . 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 Arzfeld , which was administratively assigned 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, Prussia generally retained the administrative districts of the French Mairies for the time being. The Olmscheid mayor's office corresponded to the previous Mairie Olmscheid.

The mayorries of Arzfeld , Daleiden , Dasburg and Olmscheid were already administered by the Daleiden mayor in personal union in the second half of the 19th century, but remained independent administrative districts.

Like all rural mayor's offices in the Rhine Province , the Olmscheid mayor's office was renamed “Amt Olmscheid” in 1927. Finally, the mayor's office , which was last co-administered from Daleiden, was dissolved in 1936 and incorporated into the Daleiden-Leidenborn office, which was newly formed at the same time .

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