geography
Kisselbach is located northwest of Rheinböllen and the foot of the Soonwald and about 15 kilometers from the Middle Rhine . The Simmerbach flows through the village. The community also includes the Grings-Mühle, Kesselhannesmühle and Ölmühle residential areas .
history
Kisselbach was first mentioned in a document as "Kisilbath" in a boundary description of the Mörschbach parish from 1006. However, this could also just be the stream that is located east of Steinbach and that is still the boundary today.
Kisselbach has always been separated by the Simmerbach into two districts of the same name, one part belonged to the Electorate of Trier (Amt Oberwesel ) and was formerly imperial , the other to the Electoral Palatinate or the Principality of Simmern . With the occupation of the Left Bank of the Rhine in 1794 by French revolutionary troops , the places became French, from 1798 to 1814 it belonged to the canton of Simmern in the Rhine-Mosel department . After the French era , in 1815, the places were assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia at the Congress of Vienna . It was not until 1939 that Kisselbach on this side and Kisselbach on the other side were merged into one municipality. Since 1946 the place has been part of the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate.

Blazon : "Under a golden shield head, inside a black, red-footed eagle, divided by black and silver obliquely to the left, above a red-tongued golden lion striding up to the left, below a continuous red bar cross." | |
Justification of the coat of arms: The eagle reminds of the earlier imperial immediacy of the later part of Trier. The lion stands for the Electoral Palatinate, the cross for Trier, the wavy line stands for the division by the Simmerbach. |

One of the sights is the forest chapel in honor of St. Mary , to which a light procession of the Catholic parish takes place every 13th day of the month from May to October .

Economy and Infrastructure
Kisselbach is close to the A 61 . The Laudert / Kisselbach exit is about 3 km away and can be reached via the country road 220, which connects Kisselbach with the district town of Simmern (14 km) and the town of Oberwesel am Rhein (21 km).
There are still two full-time farms in the village, plus a number of " after-work farmers ". There are few craftsmen and service providers and there are no shops for daily needs. Only one farm in a neighboring community offers its goods in a farm shop . With an inn, a guesthouse and a newly built holiday apartment, tourism is still modest.
On September 27, 2014, as part of the campaign week “Rhineland-Palatinate: A Land Full of Energy”, RWE launched a smart operator local area network that intelligently controls the generation from 14 photovoltaic systems and the consumption of 130 households and 21 night storage heaters . In addition, Kisselbach has been connected to the "fast data network" since April 2014. This is a prerequisite for the aforementioned project.
