history

The place name Reeg, formerly called "Reeghof", means something like "slope" and indicates an early settlement. The first written mention of the place dates from the year 1456. In a partition contract of the low-nobility Munt von Neustadt the farm was called "Up dem Reche".

The lease for the Reeg farm from 1529 gives an insight into the lease conditions that were customary at the time. The annual lease was ten Malter oats and two Malter Korn as well as the second best pig and a few smaller taxes. A painter according to the Cologne standard corresponded to about 1.64 hectoliters . Furthermore, the tenant had to "feed" three pigs belonging to the owner of the farm and one cattle.

Reeg belonged to the Electorate of Cologne and to the Altenwied office and was part of the " Honnschaft Schöneberg". According to an inventory ordered by Cologne Elector Maximilian Heinrich in 1660, the Reeg farm had a size of 34 acres of land and 11 acres of meadow. In 1787 Reeg had two houses.

After the Rhineland became part of Prussia in 1815 , Reeg belonged to the Schöneberg community in the then newly formed Neuwied district and was initially administered by the Neustadt mayor and from 1823 by the Asbach mayor . According to a census from 1885, Reeg had 27 residents who lived in four houses.

Until 1974 Reeg was part of the previously independent community of Schöneberg . On March 16, 1974, the local community Asbach was newly formed from it and the communities of Asbach and Limbach, which were dissolved at the same time, and part of the community of Elsaff . In 1987 Reeg had 13 residents.
