history
The Guntersblum and Nierstein-Oppenheim municipalities were established in 1972 as part of the first administrative reform in Rhineland-Palatinate . Before that, the administrative structures from the Hessian period (1816 to 1946) essentially applied in the then administrative district of Rheinhessen .
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. For municipalities it was determined that they should include at least 12,000 inhabitants (main residence on June 30, 2009). On the reference date, 9,458 inhabitants were registered in the Guntersblum community. The so-called “voluntary phase” ended on June 30, 2012.
In January 2011, a citizens' survey was carried out within the Guntersblum community , 87% of the residents were in favor of maintaining the Guntersblum community. On May 7, 2012, the Guntersblum municipal council decided on the voluntary merger of the Guntersblum municipality with the Nierstein-Oppenheim municipality. Because of a citizens' initiative took place on 4 November 2012, the inhabitants of the municipality Guntersblum a referendum with the aim to reverse the decision of the association council. A narrow majority of 50.2% voted for the repeal of the council decision.
On December 20, 2013, a state law decreed that the Guntersblum community was incorporated into the Nierstein-Oppenheim community on July 1, 2014 and that the new community should be called "Rhein-Selz".
