Fremersdorf (Saarländisch Fremersdroff , Freemerschdorf ) is a district and a district of the municipality of Rehlingen-Siersburg in the Saarlouis district (Saarland).

history

As finds testify, the area around Fremersdorf was a Celtic and Roman settlement area. A Roman road led from Trier , if not a major military road, to Contiomagus . According to Volume 31 of the Wallerfanger story by Theodor Liebertz, the path ran on half the slope near Fremersdorf, then slowly rose and led to Eimersdorf . There were several settlement and grave sites on this road or in its vicinity. Here the street on Galgenberg led past a villa rustica with farm buildings. The villa was equipped with all the comforts of the time: mosaic floors , water pipes, bathrooms and underfloor heating .

The Romans followed in the 5th – 8th centuries. Century the Franks, to Nied , Saar and Moselle the Moselle francs . According to the Franconian settlement method, their settlements were built in floodplains and on flowing waters. The local settlement is said to have originated from the court of the Franconian Frimo / Fridumar -Frimosdorf-. In the course of time the place name underwent several changes:

  • Frummerstorf
  • Frimmerstorf
  • Frymersdorf
  • Fremmerstorff
  • Fremestroff
  • Fremmersdorf
  • Fremersdorf.

In a loan document from 1430 Fremersdorf was listed as a village. Hesse von Esch was enfeoffed by Count Johann von Saarbrücken with the "village of Frimmersdorf situated on the Saar".

Through the provisions of the Peace of Vincennes , Fremersdorf came to France and became a French customs post in 1723/24.

Until the end of 1973, Fremersdorf was an officially affiliated, independent municipality. In the course of the regional and administrative reform , the previously independent municipality of Fremersdorf became a district of the municipality of Rehlingen on January 1, 1974, which was later renamed Rehlingen-Siersburg.
