history

The former Dinghof Dammheim was built around the time of the Franconian settlement around the year 600. The first documentary mention of the village comes from the year 960, when Bishop Gottfried I of Speyer exchanged a vineyard with a Junker Rudolf von Zeiskam . In the 13th century, Count Emich IV of Leiningen received the place. In 1292 Dammheim is legally connected to Landau. Dammheim became part of France as early as the early modern period . In the course of the French Revolution, the place became an independent municipality in 1792.

From 1798 to 1814, when the Palatinate was part of the French Republic (until 1804) and then part of the Napoleonic Empire , Damheim was - as the spelling at the time - incorporated into the canton of Landau and the Bas-Rhin department . In 1814 the place had a total of 366 inhabitants. In September 1814, Dammheim was initially reclassified to the canton of Edenkoben for a short time before it changed again to that of Landau. From 1818 to 1862 the place belonged - still as part of the canton Landau , which now belongs to Bavaria - to the Landau Landau , which was then converted into a district office.

In 1938 the place was incorporated into the Landau district. After the Second World War , Dammheim became part of the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate within the French occupation zone . In the course of the first administrative reform in Rhineland-Palatinate, the place changed to the newly created Landau-Bad Bergzabern district on June 7, 1969 . Just three years later, 92% of the population voted for re-incorporation into Landau, which took place on April 22, 1972.

traffic

Around 1900 Dammheim was given a train station south of the settlement area on the Germersheim – Landau railway line opened in 1872 . The platform was built not far from a previously existing station keeper's house. During the time of the Bavarian State Railways it was listed as station type 1, which meant that it was a “personal event. also luggage traffic ” . Due to its remote location, it was abandoned in 1981, three years before passenger traffic on the route ceased. The station building is now used as a residential building. The place is connected to the local traffic via bus lines 539 and 590 in the Rhein-Neckar transport association.
