history

The place was first mentioned in 1240 as Jorlum , in 1462 the form Iorle is found . In the 18th century Den Danske Atlas it is called Jordel . The name goes back to the old Danish form iørul (corresponding to Old Norse jǫrvi ) and means grus, height of sand . Rupel (Danish Rubøl ) could go back to the Old Norse animal name hrútr for ram, to the nickname Ruki or to North Frisian Ruuke for pile of sand. The ending -pel corresponds to the Danish ending -bøl , dt. -Büll . The name Rimmelsberg comes from Danish. rimme (altn. rimi ) for a row of dunes or a ridge back.

The St. Katharinen Church was built in the 14th century. The bell tower from 1914 replaced an older tower that was separate from the church. Until the German-Danish War Jörl formed the center of the parish Jörl (Danish Jørl Sogn or Hjørdel Sogn ) within the Uggelharde .

From 1889 to 1968 Jörl was the seat of the administration of the district or the office of Jörl. Since its dissolution, Jörl has belonged to the Eggebek office .
