history

The earliest surviving documentary mention of Wylnrodt points to the year 1488. The spelling of the place name was Wostenwilnrot in 1514 , and Wüstwüllenrod is documented in the level map of the Electorate of Hesse from 1840–1861 before the current spelling was used.

In 1939 the place belonged to the district of Gelnhausen and had 184 inhabitants.

In the course of administrative reform in Hesse municipalities Wüst Will Roth, Lichenroth, Wettges and Völzberg joined voluntarily as of 1 July 1971 on the new community Oberland together . As early as May 1972, the Hessian state government initiated a hearing process with the aim of merging the previous communities of Birstein (with districts), Katholisch-Willenroth and Oberland to form a new large community. The Oberland municipality was finally incorporated into the Birstein municipality by virtue of state law with effect from July 1, 1974. Local districts were set up for all formerly independent municipalities .
