Until 1794 the place belonged to the dairy Eschfeld - Arzfeld in the Dasburg rule , which was part of the Duchy of Luxembourg . After the annexation of the Austrian Netherlands , to which the Duchy of Luxembourg belonged, by French revolutionary troops , the municipality of Daleiden was assigned to the canton of Arzfeld in the department of forests in 1795. Due to the resolutions at the Congress of Vienna in 1815, the former Luxembourg area east of the Sauer and Our rivers was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia . Under the Prussian administration, Daleiden came to the newly established district of Prüm in the Trier administrative district in 1816 and became the seat of the Daleiden mayor . In 1843 Daleiden consisted of 106 houses with 645 inhabitants. All residents were Catholic.
