About this picture

Borler is a municipality in the Vulkaneifel district in Rhineland-Palatinate . It belongs to the association community Kelberg .

geography

The place is in the Vulkaneifel around 14 kilometers from the Nürburgring .

history

Borler is located at the crossroads of two paths on which traces of settlement can be traced back to Roman times: from the Nürburg to Kerpen or from Barsberg on over the Senscheider Ridge (location of a castle). Both paths use the transition over the Nohner Bach , which runs in the valley between Bodenbach and Nohn .

The first traces of settlement in the region are assigned to the Early Stone Age ( stone axes , found near Üxheim ). Numerous barrows on Barsberg near Bongard , as well as a ring wall there are probably of early Celtic origin (surveyed by the State Office for Monument Preservation , Koblenz 1936/37).

Various Roman military roads passed nearby; B. Caesarstrasse , roughly corresponding to today's B 410 . Various other archaeological finds from Roman times can be found nearby.

A first documentary mention is dated to 1140, whereby the name Budelar used in the document is also assigned to the nearby town of Bauler , in other documents around the same time the spelling is also found as Budeler . In the MGH's writings , Borler is derived from Brunvilare , but from other, even earlier sources, Brunvilare is assigned to Barweiler . Around 1200 the name Burlat appears as the seat of the holder of a ⅔ church tithe , named Gerhard von Wiesbaum. Borler belonged to the private church Üxheim owned by the imperial abbey of St. Maximin in Trier, a Benedictine monastery which, with the abbey of Prüm, had a large share in the colonization of the region beyond the existing places.

Another documentary mention from an undated document is estimated to be 1510–1520, in the Trier fire book of 1563 nine houses with their own fireplace are mentioned. The place was certainly shaped by the Electorate of Cologne and the Electorate of Trier Hof Heyer of the Lords of Heyer, located southeast of the village center. Both groups of buildings no longer exist. A Wilhelm von Heyer appears in 1359 in a list of the castle men of Daun by Archbishop Boemund von Trier .

Until the occupation by French revolutionary troops (1794) Borler belonged to the Electorate of Trier , Office Daun , court Kelberg , centering court Bongard . From 1798 to 1814 it was assigned to the Rhine-Moselle Department , Canton Adenau , Mairie Barweiler . Borler came to the Adenau district during the Prussian period . In connection with the municipal reorganization of Rhineland-Palatinate and the reorganization of the Kelberg Association , the Borler community came on November 7, 1970 from the Mayen district, which was dissolved at the same time, to the Daun district (now the Vulkaneifel district ).

The oldest houses in the village are grouped around Bachgasse, which leads to the bridge over the brook and around the St. Leonard branch church located above Bachgasse. The house "Antünnesse" (Bachgasse 3, demolished in 2006) was built in 1650, the house "Mone" (Hauptstrasse 10) in 1766.

In the course of the construction of a central wastewater treatment facility for Borler and neighboring towns with the construction of a central sewage treatment plant on Borler's municipal area, the streetscape of the village was also extensively renovated between 2002 and 2004 after the sewer pipes were laid. Most of the costs for the road construction were raised by the citizens, as well as the development costs for the sewers. All roads and paths have been rebuilt. Double-sided sidewalks have been replaced by one-sided. Remaining areas have been developed with so-called poor grass . The large playground in the center of the village was rededicated as building land and replaced by a smaller playground behind the fire station.

economy

Agriculture once shaped village life. With funds from the Marshall Plan , a grassland and research institute ( experimental and teaching institute for grassland management and forage production in the high altitude areas of the Eifel, Hunsrück, Westerwald and Taunus ) was set up. In 1970, Borler published a comprehensive analysis of the population and agricultural conditions from the educational establishment. In the course of time, the facility (called "the institute" for short in the village), which was operated by the Rhineland-Nassau Chamber of Agriculture , was abandoned and, after renovation, was now used as a community center. Up until the 1980s, dairy cattle were formative in agriculture. The fodder was obtained from the adjacent meadows and arable land around the village. Today agriculture is only a sideline on some farms (three farms were counted in 2010), predominantly horse breeding and keeping, the pastureland is leased to farmers from neighboring towns.

For some time now, many people from, for example, Belgium, the Netherlands or the Rhineland and the Ruhr area have been living in purchased houses as weekend / holiday homes.

Tourism is gaining importance as a "new" branch of the economy for the village, some of the old houses have been renovated and are being offered as holiday homes for rent.

religion

About 90% of the citizens of Borler are Roman Catholic. Borler belongs today to the cath. Bodenbach parish. In the 1990s, the village chapel , built in 1752/53 and consecrated to St. Leonhard , was extensively renovated inside and out with the support of the Trier diocese and the local community.

The neo-Romanesque Heyerberg Chapel, completed in 1875, stands on the wooded Heyerberg about 1200 meters southwest of Borler . It goes back to a castle chapel that existed before 1600. Around the chapel there is a way of the cross with 14 stations created in 1878 .
