history

Kadenbach was first mentioned in a document as "Catenbach" on August 1, 1110, when Archbishop Bruno of Trier donated a house to the Florinsstift in Koblenz to build a hospital and furnished it with goods in Kadenbach. In 1216 Archbishop Theoderich II transferred the hospital and the associated goods to the Teutonic Order in Koblenz . The Teutonic Order had the manorial rule in Kadenbach until 1809. Until the end of the 18th century, Alflen belonged to the rulers of Kurtrier and was assigned to the Ehrenbreitstein office. Within the administrative district, Kadenbach belonged to the "court in the Augst " to which Arzbach , Eitelborn and Neuhäusel also belonged. The Trier fire book from 1563 lists 14 fireplaces (households) in Kadenbach ( Cadenbach ), in 1684 there were 21.

Through the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss Kadenbach came to the office of Ehrenbreitstein in 1803 to the Principality of Nassau-Weilburg and from 1806 to the Duchy of Nassau and in 1816 was assigned to the Office of Montabaur . In 1866 the transition to the Kingdom of Prussia followed . Under the Prussian administration, the community belonged to the Unterwesterwaldkreis in the province of Hessen-Nassau from 1867 . Kadenbach has belonged to the state of Rhineland-Palatinate since 1946 and to the newly formed Westerwaldkreis since 1974.

The first school building in Kadenbach was completed in 1836, and the new school building was completed in 1878. The previous school building then became the teacher's apartment. In 1936 the spelling "Kadenbach" became the official place name. Numerous new buildings were built in the 20th century, including the new sports field between 1946 and 1948, the cemetery in 1950 and the church in 1953. The expansion of the settlement began in 1959 with the first development on Freiherr-vom-Stein-Strasse. Further settlement areas were added on Römerstrasse (1969 and 1972) and Brunnenstrasse (1969), "Auf der Höh" (1980) and "Auf der Höh II" (2001).
