history

During excavations, traces of Roman and Franconian settlement were found in the Kersch district.

Kersch was mentioned for the first time in a document dated October 28, 895 as Carescara , in which King Zwentibold of Lorraine confirmed their possessions at the request of the Archbishop of Trier Radbod of the Echternach Abbey .

The two villages Kersch and Olk , which today belong to the municipality of Ralingen, belonged to the Electorate of Trier until the end of the 18th century and were subject to the jurisdiction of the Welschbillig office .

In 1794 French revolutionary troops occupied the left bank of the Rhine and annexed it after the Peace of Campo Formio in October 1797 . From 1798 to 1814 the place belonged to the French canton Pfalzel in the Saardepartement .

In 1815 the region was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia at the Congress of Vienna . With this, the municipality of Kersch became part of the district of Trier and the administrative district of Trier in the province of Grand Duchy of Lower Rhine in 1816 , which became part of the Rhine province in 1822. The community of Kersch was subordinated to the mayor's office of Trierweiler .

After the Second World War , Kersch became part of the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate within the French occupation zone .

On March 17, 1974, the four previously independent municipalities were Edingen , Kersh, Olk and winter village after Ralingen incorporated.
