history

To the northeast of Weinsheim, on a hill, there is a ring wall protected by watercourses, 150 by 75 meters in size, which is probably of prehistoric origin.

Weinsheim was first mentioned in a document in 1335 when Hartart von Schönecken gave his court to "Winzheim" to the Elector Baldwin of Trier as a fief. After another notarization of the place in 1343 as "Winsheim", the name "Wyntzem" appeared in 1570.

At that time, Weinsheim belonged to the Electorate of Trier and had been merged with Gondelsheim to form a dairy (estate or administrative area) since the 14th century . In 1720, the ownership structure in Weinsheim was recorded in a so-called stock book.

After the French revolutionary troops marched in in 1794, the region was amalgamated in the Saar Department and after the Congress of Vienna the place belonged to the Prüm district from 1815 .

After the end of the First World War , the village was under American occupation until 1919. At the end of the Second World War , American troops first occupied the severely destroyed place in 1945, then Weinsheim belonged to the French occupation zone and since 1946 to the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate .
