history

From 1871 to the end of the First World War , Ostheim belonged to the German Empire as part of the realm of Alsace-Lorraine and was assigned to the district of Rappoltsweiler in the district of Upper Alsace .

After the village was almost completely destroyed in early 1945, it was rebuilt, so the appearance of the village (with the two churches and the town hall) is in the style of the early post-war period.
