history
About one kilometer northeast of the location of Miel there was a settlement with the transition over the Swist called Lützermiel since Roman times . Buildings of this settlement existed well into the 19th century. Today there is the entrance to a recycling plant. The foundations of a Prussian bridge along the Bonn-Schleiden district road from 1823 have been preserved by Lützermiel. The historic route of the road a few meters north of today's B 56 can still be seen. The Prussian milestone there is a semi-finished product , the year should have been chiseled in later.
South of it, to the right of the Swist, the Polish slave laborer Anton Wujciakowski was hanged by the Gestapo on August 9, 1941 in front of several hundred slave laborers. A memorial stone commemorates the murder.
On August 1, 1969, Miel was incorporated into Swisttal.
