Korweiler The municipality lies in the northern Hunsrück on a ridge east of the Dünnbach valley.
Korweiler While Korweiler might have belonged beginning in the Late Middle Ages or early modern times to the Lordship of Waldeck and Waldeck Castle, the village held a special place within the Lordship owing to the Kumbd properties and rights. Nevertheless, the family Boos zu Waldeck long held “patronage money” (German: "Schirmgeld"), that is to say, the Kumbd Convent’s rights and income. The Lordship of Waldeck was by the 16th century independent of the Empire and comprised not only the castle lands but also the villages of Dorweiler, Mannebach and Korweiler as well as the forsaken village of Hausen near Beltheim. Even though the village belonged to the Lordship of Waldeck, all Korweiler’s inhabitants were said to be "Willibrordskinder" (“Willibrord’s children”), meaning that originally, they belonged to a fief of Saint Willibrord’s Abbey in Echternach. Given this tangle of allegiances and ownership rights, there were time and again disagreements with the Knights of Waldeck, leading to conflicts and compromises all the way to the "Reichskammergericht".
Korweiler The oldest evidence of settlers in the area comes from early La Tène times. In 1939 and 1940, while cross-country paths were being built, Iron Age settlement groups were unearthed. Going by the ceramics that were found then, the settlements are about 2,400 years old and belong to the later Hunsrück-Eifel Culture. No further investigations were undertaken at the time – it was, after all, during the Second World War – but it is quite likely that Iron Age houses once stood here.
Korweiler In 1793, the region was occupied by French Revolutionary troops and assigned to the Department of Rhin-et-Moselle, making it French until the Congress of Vienna in 1815. The Congress rearranged Europe’s post-Napoleonic political map, putting Korweiler in the Kingdom of Prussia, and locally in the Rhine Province. Since 1946, it has been part of the then newly founded state of Rhineland-Palatinate.
Korweiler The municipality’s arms might be described thus: Gules an abbot’s staff Or, the shaft sable, bendwise sinister surmounted by three arming buckles bottony conjoined in bend sans tongues argent.
