history

The history of Bubenheim begins in pre-Christian times. Found broken glass, remains of fire and pieces of burnt clay suggest that a settlement from the more recent Hallstatt period must have been here. Excavations in 1881 brought the foundations of a larger Roman villa with bathrooms and heated rooms to light east of the village . In 1961 a Roman equestrian helmet was found. On the north side of the Bubenheimer Berg there is an extensive burial ground from the Merovingian era .

There are two theories as to the origin of the name Bubenheim. The first says that it goes back to the expression Heim des Bubo (a Franconian landowner) and should belong to a group of place names of Franconian origin, which designate the first inhabitant and is dated to the 8th century, which also means the approximate age of Bubenheim is indicated. Others claim that the village got its name from the provost Bubo of St. Castor's monastery . The first written mention of the place Buobenheim goes hand in hand with the foundation of a chapel in 1052 by the noble widow Glismuot.

The German Order Coming Koblenz , the Cistercian monastery Himmerod and the Kartause Koblenz owned real estate in Bubenheim. The Koblenz monastery of St. Florin had a court here from 1303 until the 18th century, as did the Besselich monastery and the cathedral monastery from Aachen until the secularization at the beginning of the 18th century. Several mills were operated on the Bubenheimer Bach .

Since the 15th century, Bubenheim belonged to the Trier Ministry of Mountain Maintenance , which was named after the court on the Bubenheimer Berg. In French times (1794-1814) the place belonged to the Mairie Bassenheim in the canton of Rübenach ( Arrondissement de Coblence ). After that, Prussia took over Bubenheim and it was assigned to the Bassenheim office in the Koblenz district . Until after 1918, the Bubenheim farmers supplied the Koblenz people with potatoes and milk. On November 7, 1970, Bubenheim was incorporated into the city of Koblenz. Today there is a service center as well as a commercial and technology park for the city of Koblenz in the Bubenheim area.
