Due to the agreements made at the Congress of Vienna in 1815 , the region became part of the Kingdom of Prussia . Under Prussian administration, the community of Gunderath was assigned to the Adenau district in the Koblenz administrative district and was administered by the Kelberg mayor . This went on in 1927 in the Kelberg office and in 1968 in the Kelberg Association . After the First World War , the area was under French military administration . When the Adenau district was dissolved in 1932, Gunderath joined the Mayen district . The region has been part of the state of Rhineland-Palatinate since 1946 and belonged to the French occupation zone until 1949 and 1955, respectively .

As part of the municipal reorganization of Rhineland-Palatinate, the community came on November 7, 1970 from the district of Mayen , which was dissolved at the same time, to the district of Daun (now the district of Vulkaneifel ).
