Village center

geography

The community lies partly in the Saar-Hunsrück Nature Park . The community also includes the Bescheidermühlen , Jagdhaus Hubertus and Rockenburgerhof residential areas .

history

The first settlement took place in pre-Christian times, as evidenced by many Celtic barrows found in the forest . The first documentary mention dates from the year 1030. The oldest building in the village is probably the church tower, which was built in 1474 according to an inscription above the entrance to the old sacristy .

There is a particularly interesting story about the municipality's coat of arms. The coat of arms - divided into three parts: church bell , wagon wheel and horn - is reminiscent of the second patron saint of the village church, the Holy Trinity, Saint Hubertus, and the following story is told about the bell and wheel:

“At a time when the villages of Bescheid and Schleich maintained a parish with the associated church on the Schleicherberg , the Kirchberg, the danger of war arose and it was decided to bury the bell in the forest to protect it from the enemy. After the war was over, the place where the bell was buried was initially forgotten until a pack of pigs exposed it. Since both villages now had their own parish churches, there was initially a dispute over who should own the bell. It was agreed that it should belong to the village to which it would be brought by a blind horse that was harnessed to a wagon with a bell. The horse went straight to the notice and shortly before reaching the village a wheel came off the wagon and rolled until it stopped against the church wall. Attentive listeners then claim to have heard the following words from the ringing of the bell: Wild boar digs me, blind horse drags me, to God's credit I ring! "
