history
In two papal documents from 1178 and 1186 the place is called "Vosca" and "Vostra". Forst was the center of the Nasser or Forster parish , which has been an early parish and judicial district since the Middle Ages. Around 1790 the landlords were, in addition to the St. Kastor monastery in Karden, the Freiherrn von Clodt, the Counts von der Leyen, the Counts Waldbott von Bassenheim, the Rosenthal Monastery and the Franciscan Monastery in Karden.
Until the end of the 18th century, Forst belonged to the Electorate of Trier and was assigned to the administration and jurisdiction of the Münstermaifeld office.
In 1794 the Left Bank of the Rhine was occupied by French revolutionary troops in the First Coalition War. From 1798 to 1814, Forst belonged to the canton of Münstermaifeld in the Rhine-Moselle department . Around 1802, the church and monastery property were secularized and confiscated from the French state .
At the Congress of Vienna (1815), the region came to the Kingdom of Prussia , Forst was assigned to the newly established district of Cochem in the administrative district of Trier in 1816 and administered by the Karden mayor .
After the Second World War , the municipality of Forst within the French occupation zone became part of the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate.
The community has had the addition of "(Eifel)" to its name since June 1, 1970.

coat of arms
The municipality has had a coat of arms since 1987 :
Blazon : “Shield divided in the Göpel cut. In front a stylized black temple in silver, behind in green a silver church, below in gold over three red diamonds four red balls, each in bars " | |
Justification of the coat of arms: The three-part coat of arms indicates the districts of Forst, Molzig and Pfaffenhausen in the municipality. The temple complex is reminiscent of the Roman settlement in the “Stockborn” corridor. The center of the Nasser parish of nine courtyards was the old church, which is mentioned in 1288 in the will of Rudolf von Polch. The seal of the Nasser parish from 1587 shows, among other things, the coat of arms of Brunsperch-Brohl, which is placed in the lower part of the coat of arms. For many years they had the Pellenzgericht as a fief. |
