The district of Tawern also includes the residential areas Mertenmühle, Oberste Mausmühle and Unterste Mausmühle, and the district of Fellerich the Fellericher Mühle.

history

The place name Tawern comes from the Latin word taberna (shop, shop), which explains the emphasis on the second syllable of today's name Tawern . The first settlement was founded by the Romans around 2000 years ago, almost at the same time as the Roman settlement in Trier .

The place name refers to the origin of the place in Roman times and its original purpose. Probably at the same time as the Roman temple district on the Metzenberg, a "taberna", a rest area with a feeder and transformer station for draft animals, was probably built in the 1st century AD at the foot of the mountain, over which a trade route led to Metz. The Latin emphasis of the place name on the second syllable suggests continuous settlement since Roman times. Today Tawern has developed into a residential area and is located in the Obermosel-Saar recreation area and in the Saar-Hunsrück nature park .

There is a partially reconstructed temple complex in the forest on the Metzenberg above Tawern. In the local area there is a signposted excavation site of the former Roman street settlement.

On July 18, 1946, Tawern, together with 80 other municipalities in the districts of Trier and Saarburg , was annexed to the Saar area , which was separated from the rest of the French occupation zone in February 1946 and which at that time was no longer under the Allied Control Council. On June 6, 1947 this territorial outsourcing was withdrawn to 21 municipalities, so Tawern came to the 1946 newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate .

On March 17, 1974, the previously independent municipality of Fellerich was incorporated.
