history
Early history
In the Neolithic Age , band ceramists settled on the site of today's Dortelweil. In the second half of the first millennium AD, the Franks began to settle and set up village settlements.
Middle Ages and Early Modern Times
Between 774 and 786 Dortelweil is mentioned in donations to the imperial monastery Lorsch . They are the oldest recorded mentions of the place.
It was awarded to the Free Imperial City of Frankfurt am Main in 1292 and then belonged to its territory for almost 600 years as one of eight rural communities . The residents of Dortelweils were serfs of the Frankfurt Council and obliged to do labor. Serfdom was not finally abolished until 1818
The particular law of Dortelweil was particularly complex: Here the Frankfurt Reformation and, in a multilevel subsidiary manner, the Solms land law and common law applied . This remained with the transition to the Grand Duchy of Hesse so and did not change until 1 January 1900, when the same across the whole German Reich applicable Code Civil entered into force and replaced the Partikularrechte.
Modern times
In 1853 the villagers were given the right to vote for the legislative body , the legislature of the Free City of Frankfurt .
After the annexation of the Free City of Frankfurt by Prussia in 1866, Dortelweil left it to the Grand Duchy of Hesse with the peace treaty of September 3, 1866 .
On December 31, 1971, the place was incorporated into Bad Vilbel as part of the regional reform. Dortelweil is thus the only former rural community in Frankfurt that has not been incorporated into Frankfurt over the years.
Population development
The district received a special boost in terms of both new residents and workplaces through the designation of the Dortelweil-West development area. From the mid-1990s to around 2006, around 900 residential units were built on 80 hectares of former arable land in private homes and a few multi-storey buildings, plus a district center with a shopping center (Brunnen-Center), the social infrastructure and community facilities. Dortelweil grew by over 2500 inhabitants.

- 4 members of the CDU
- 2 members of the SPD

economy
Due to the short distances to Frankfurt a. M. an important location for the service industry. The listed pharmaceutical group STADA Arzneimittel AG has had its headquarters in Dortelweil since the 1950s . In addition, after a few specialist stores and a furniture store, personnel-intensive companies such as Lahmeyer International or First Data Germany have settled.
Office buildings were built along the old B3, in which several job-intensive service companies have settled. This prevented the development of Dortelweil-West into a pure dormitory city . With the establishment of the European School RheinMain , a private grammar school with the final offer of the EU Abitur, Dortelweil-West has received another regional focus since 2012.

The K10 runs through Dortelweil between Bad Vilbel and Karben. As Friedberger Strasse, this district road is the main axis of the modern part of the town. The headquarters of the large companies, the culture and sports forum and the main shopping facilities in the town are located on it in the Brunnen-Center. The street is characterized by works of art and fountains.
Coming from Bad Vilbel, you first pass the artwork “Torhaus” by Klaus J. Tippmann on the first roundabout opposite First Data Germany. The brick-built gate is intended to symbolize the entrance / exit to the city and create an arc from the Roman past to the modern age. The middle of the through-town is formed by the second roundabout with a water feature. This fountain at the level of the fountain center forms an eye-catcher with alternating fountain on the one hand and contributes to reducing speed on the other. Across from the Bad Vilbel town hall, which was built as the headquarters of Allianz Dresdner Bauspar AG, ER Nele's “Walking Man” artwork stretches across Friedberger Straße. A wire rope is stretched between twisted stainless steel pillars on both sides of the street, on which a figure made of stainless steel strips ropes .
The passage ends 200 meters further on at a last roundabout. In the middle is the “Wasserwerk Ensemble” fountain by Klaus J. Tippmann. The fountain in the middle is surrounded by four steel bridges, which are arranged so that there are different views from each side of the roundabout. The through-town ends with the headquarters of the Stada at this roundabout.
Route 64 of the Vilbus connects Dortelweil with the core town of Bad Vilbel.
