history

Beul was first mentioned in 1374. The St. Willibrordus Church, consecrated in 990 according to an inscription by Cologne Archbishop Everger , has a late Romanesque tower from the 13th century and a nave from 1724. Between 1786 and 1792 Ludwig van Beethoven visited the Hofgut (now the city library) several times. the family friends of the Palatinate Court Councilor Johann Heinrich Hubert Stockhausen in Beul.

Beul belonged to the parish of Wadenheim. After the Rhineland came to Prussia in 1815 as a result of the resolutions at the Congress of Vienna , Wadenheim formed a municipality to which the villages of Hemmessen and Beul also belonged. The three places grew together after the discovery of the Apollinaris spring in 1852 and the Augusta and Victoria springs in 1854 and the opening of the first bathing season in 1859. The community Wadenheim was renamed in 1875 in "community Neuenahr".

Since July 7, 1969, Bad Neuenahr and thus also Beul have been part of the then newly formed town of Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler .
