history
The previous Verbandsgemeinden Bitburg-Land and Kyllburg were created in 1968 as part of the first Rhineland-Palatinate administrative reform from several offices from the Prussian period .
On September 28, 2010 the state government passed the “First Law on Local and Administrative Reform” with the aim of improving the efficiency, competitiveness and administrative power of local structures. With regard to the association communities, it was determined that they should include at least 12,000 inhabitants (main residence on June 30, 2009). The community of Kyllburg had 8,089 inhabitants on the reference date. The so-called voluntary phase ended on June 30, 2012.
On June 28, 2012, the municipal councils Bitburg-Land and Kyllburg resolved the merger in separate meetings and a majority approved the “Contract on the voluntary merger of the Kyllburg association with the Bitburg-Land association”.
In the "State Law on the Voluntary Formation of the New Association of Bitburger Land" of November 22, 2013, it was stipulated that the new community should be called "Bitburger Land". The association administration of the new association has its seat in Bitburg, in Kyllburg a further administration point is set up.
On the occasion of its voluntary formation, the state grants the new community a one-time, resident-related allocation in the amount of 958,900 euros. In addition, the association receives an allocation of 2,000,000 euros.
On January 1, 2018, the local church was Hisel after Brimingen incorporated.

coat of arms
Blazon : "Silver bordered, under a golden shield head with a red five-row bridge in a blue silver shield with a continuous red cross." | |
Founding of the coat of arms: Through the state law of November 22, 2013, the Bitburger Land association is created through the voluntary merger of the two municipalities Bitburg-Land and Kyllburg on July 1st, 2014.
A new common coat of arms is created from individual characteristic elements of both previous coats of arms. For the Verbandsgemeinde Bitburg-Land, the red five-legged bridge in gold remains in the shield head and for the Verbandsgemeinde Kyllburg one of the silver shields with the red Trier cross in blue in the fore-coat of arms remains . The five-legged red bridge or tournament collar refers to the five former association communities Bickendorf and Bitburg-Land as well as parts of the former association communities Dudeldorf, Oberweis and Wolsfeld, which merged in November 1970 to form what was then the new administrative unit Verbandsgemeinde Bitburg-Land. The color combinations red and silver as well as blue and silver represent Kurtrier and Luxembourg, the two dominant rulers in this region since the turn of the first millennium. Gold in the head of the shield was left, it refers to the lord of the castle Hurel von Bettingen, from the oldest documented family in the area of today's Verbandsgemeinde, whose dismantled golden anchor cross adorned the coat of arms of the Verbandsgemeinde Bitburg-Land. Bordering is only allowed for association communities. |
On May 8, 2014, the association was granted a coat of arms and a flag on August 6, 2014. The flag is divided by blue and white, in the middle, offset to the pole, the coat of arms of the Verbandsgemeinde.
The coat of arms and the flags of the municipality may only be used by others with the approval of the municipality administration.
Design: Christian Credner, Lambertsberg and Lothar Monshausen, Bitburg in March 2014. Approved in May 2014 by the supervisory authority of the Eifelkreis.
