history

Before 1794, the villages of Olzheim, Dausfeld, Hermespand, Wascheid and Willwerath belonged to the Prüm office in the Electorate of Trier , and Kleinlangenfeld to the Schönecken office of the Electorate of Trier . Before 1794 Neuendorf belonged to the County of Gerolstein .

In 1794 French revolutionary troops occupied the left bank of the Rhine . Under the French administration , the mentioned localities were assigned to the canton of Prüm from 1798 , which belonged to the arrondissement of Prüm in the Saar department .

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 mayor's office in Olzheim corresponded to the previous Mairie Olzheim. The Bürgermeisterei Olzheim was the circle Prüm in Trier assigned. It existed until 1896 and merged with the mayor's offices of Rommersheim and Wallersheim in the mayor's office of Prüm-Land .

From an administrative point of view, all localities now belong to the community of Prüm in the Eifel district of Bitburg-Prüm in Rhineland-Palatinate .
