history
Originally owned by the Prüm Abbey , the place belonged to the Hermespant mayor's office in the Kurtrier district of Prüm until the end of the 18th century . After the occupation of the Left Bank of the Rhine (1794) in the First Revolutionary War , the municipality of Willwerath belonged to the canton of Prüm in the Saar department from 1798 to 1814 .
At the Congress of Vienna in 1815, the region and thus Willwerath was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia . Under the Prussian administration, Willwerath belonged to the Olzheim mayor's office in the Prüm district, established in 1816 in the Trier administrative district .
On January 1, 1971, the previously independent community of Willwerath with 92 inhabitants at the time became part of the newly formed community of Gondelsheim (renamed Weinsheim on May 1, 1980).
