Baudweiler

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Baudweiler was a village on the northern edge of the Palatinate Forest in the Palatinate in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate . The village was in a side valley of the Alsenz about 6 km north of Enkenbach .

The origin of the village is not certain. In 1626 it is mentioned in an interest book. At that time it belonged to the Junkers von Flersheim and the Pistons von Wartenberg together.

During the Thirty Years' War the village was destroyed in 1635 by Croatian troops of the Catholic League .

In 1652 Baudweiler is described as no longer existing.

Today only the Baudweiler Cross , a sandstone cross on a traffic island, reminds of the former village.
