history

Surname

The place name research derives the place name Eschweiler from the old German word Eska = fertile land and hamlet , which is said to have developed from the Roman villare and the wilre of the Franks . The village in the midst of the Börden landscape at the transition from the Erper to the Merzenicher Lößplatte does credit to its appendage over field .

Early days

The people of the Neolithic and Bronze Age lived in and around Eschweiler, as archaeological finds show. The Romans had settlements to the north and northeast of the village , eleven of which are proven.

The place was first mentioned in a document in 1003. At that time the church (St. Heribert) and a courtyard were donated to Deutz Abbey , see Eschweiler parish church above Feld .

Modern times

Nikolaus Keuschgens from Eschweiler über Feld reported in the 18th century about the first appearance of the French revolutionary troops, which also marched through the local area: ... and on October 3, 1794 at half past nine in the morning we saw the first French in Eschweiler. The outposts came in parties of about five men. They asked for 100 crowns; to pay immediately, otherwise the whole village should be set on fire. This was the welcome they gave us.

On January 1, 1969, Eschweiler was incorporated into Nörvenich via Feld.

The Düren branch of STRABAG SE , an Austrian construction company, is located on the northern outskirts .
