history

Maximiner Hof and Catholic parish church

Tarforst and its surroundings are ancient historical soil. The archaeological finds that came to light during excavations are assigned to earlier Roman settlements. The name “Tarforst” also points to Roman times : Centarburs (Latin: “one hundred trees”). The center of the village was the tithing house of the St. Maximin Abbey , and around this manor the village expanded over time. The oldest building in Tarforst is the Maximiner Hof from 1586.

In 1933 Tarforst had 458 inhabitants. On June 7, 1969, the old district was incorporated into the city of Trier as part of a municipal territorial reform; at that time Tarforst had 630 inhabitants. Tarforst recorded a rapid increase in the number of inhabitants since the 1970s, when the community became the new location of the University of Trier ; within fifty years the population has increased eleven times. The campus area and adjoining student residences have been expanded several times since then. In the 1980s and the end of the 1990s, the new housing estates at Trimmelter Berg and Trimmelter Hof as well as the Tarforster Höhe were built .
