First mentioned in 1469 as Forswyler, 1328 Born (Bornerhof). In 1883 a Roman estate ( villa rustica ) was uncovered on the slope of the Metzelberg . When clearing out these villa remains, a stone ax and a stone point were found, both tools that were made around 4000 years ago in the Neolithic . While plowing on the Bornhübel , a farmer came across shallow graves from the later La Tène period , which prove that people lived here as early as the pre-Roman Iron Age (5th to 3rd century BC). Furschweiler was first mentioned in a document on December 9th, 1469, but settled the area much earlier. Although there are no Celtic dwellings, grave fields have been found, which prove that Celts must have settled here. In the course of the conquest of Gaul by Julius Caesar (58 - 51 BC), Roman legionaries also came to the Namborn area. Fighting broke out on (today) Alte Trierer Strasse. The Treverer carried their dead to the level where now riding Scheider cross at the intersection Roman road - is Gehweiler way and buried in mass graves with 30 polls, was scattered over the other ashes, and 10 minutes north from the riding Scheider Cross, according Roschberg to , at the height on the left on the path their dead . This mass grave was uncovered when a quarry was expanded.
