history
Dreis is one of the oldest places in the Wittlicher Land. The place bears its name after the Sauerbrunnen (= Drees), which can be found in the center of the former bull barn . Dreis, a royal estate ("fisci"), was given to the Echternach monastery on the Sauer by the brother of Charlemagne , Karlmann I , at the end of the 8th century . In 785, Charlemagne confirmed his brother's donation. A certificate of the original donation had not been issued. Karlmann died in 771. A copy of the document is in the golden book ("Liber aureus") of the Echternach Abbey, which is now kept in Gotha .
Dreis belonged country wonderfully until the end of the 18th century to the Abbey of Echternach and was Luxembourg area.
In the late Middle Ages was feudalism to Dreis a possession of the Abbey of Echternach and was under the bailiwick of the lords of Esch , later the Counts of Manderscheid-Kail . According to the wisdom , the community exercised the high judiciary fairly independently. In 1639 the abbey had a dispute with the three peasants who claimed jurisdiction for themselves. There was a trial before the Reich Chamber of Commerce in Speyer . It was not until 1673 that the judgment was made, in which Echternach Abbey was granted sovereign authority over Dreis.
In 1712 the Echternach abbot introduced some innovations, the Dreiser farmers called on the Lower Rhine knights for help and claimed to be a free imperial village . The abbot turned again to the Reich Chamber of Commerce, which ordered the farmers of Dreis to obey their masters.
The national sovereignty of the abbey was not unchallenged in any other way. In 1602 Kurtrier had made the unsuccessful attempt to be worshiped as sovereign .
After 1792 French revolutionary troops occupied the left bank of the Rhine , from 1798 to 1814 Dreis belonged to the canton of Wittlich in the French department of the Saar . Due to the agreements made at the Congress of Vienna , the region became part of the Kingdom of Prussia in 1815 , and the municipality of Dreis was assigned to the Wittlich district in the administrative district of Trier in 1816, which belonged to the Rhine province from 1822 on .
Since 1946 the community has been part of the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate .
