history
Finds show an early settlement around 3500 to 1800 BC. Among the burial finds from the Hallstatt period are the gold and bronze gifts from the prince's grave in Wollmesheim . Wollmesheim was probably founded around 500 AD, at the time of the Frankish conquest , by the Franks Wolamund as Wolmodesheim. It belonged to Weißenburg Abbey until the 12th century . During that time the oldest church in the Palatinate was built, the Romanesque Church in Wollmesheim , which was consecrated in 1014 in honor of the Holy Cross. The confessional mixing in the place goes back to the later double membership until 1709 to the Electoral Palatinate and the Hochstift Speyer . In March 1793, the Paris National Convention approved the application for inclusion of the place in the free French Republic .
From 1798 to 1814, when the Palatinate was part of the French Republic (until 1804) and then part of the Napoleonic Empire , the place was incorporated into the canton of Bergzabern . From 1816 Wollmesheim belonged to Bavaria . A year later he moved to the canton of Landau . From 1818 to 1862 Wolmesheim was - as the spelling at the time - part of the Landau Landau commissioner , which was then converted into a district office. In 1832, participants in the Hambach Festival from the town set up a tree of freedom in Wollmesheim after they returned from it .
In 1928 the place had 719 inhabitants who lived in 153 residential buildings. Both the Catholics and the Protestants belonged to the parish of Mörzheim at the time .
In 1939 the place was incorporated into the Landau district. After the Second World War , Wollmesheim became part of the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate within the French occupation zone . In the course of the first administrative reform in Rhineland-Palatinate , the place changed to the newly created Landau-Bad Bergzabern district on June 7, 1969 . On April 22, 1972 Wollmesheim was incorporated into Landau.
