history

The place was first mentioned on June 3, 1290 as Eynot . The place was settled much earlier. In 1928, near the confluence of the Schwarzbach and Blies , the foundations of a Salier-era hill tower castle were uncovered. Today there is no more to be seen. At the same time, fragments of reliefs walled up as spolia were found that can be assigned to a Roman sanctuary. This is probably also indicated by the place name "old Heidenbuchel" in 1554 by Tilemann Stella .

traffic

Einöd is connected to the German trunk road network by a junction of the Autobahn 8 . In addition, the federal highway 423 runs through the center of Einöd. In 1857, when the Homburg – Zweibrücken railway was opened , the town was connected to the railway network; with Einöd and Schwarzenacker he owned two stations along the route. The latter became a railway junction with the opening of the Würzbachbahn in 1866 , but has not had any rail traffic since 1991. However, it is planned to reactivate the railway line to Homburg in order to be able to extend the S-Bahn line S1 of the S-Bahn RheinNeckar , which has ended in Homburg, over this route to Zweibrücken.

The district is affected by the Landau – Rohrbach railway line . After the Einöd (Saar) station was shut down in the 1980s , there has been a train stop again in Einöd since December 2009 under the name Einöd (Saar) . There are also two bus routes in Einöd, one of which runs every half hour.
