Auenheim (French pronunciation: [auənaim] Alsatian : Auenem ) is a former commune in the Bas-Rhin department in the Grand Est region of north-eastern France . On 1 January 2019, it was merged into the new commune Rountzenheim-Auenheim .[2]
Geography [ edit ]
Auenheim is located some 15 km east of Haguenau and 13 km north-east of Bischwiller . Access to the commune is by the road D468 from Rœschwoog in the north-east which passes through the north of the commune and the village before continuing to Stattmatten in the south. The D463 branches off the D468 in the north of the commune and goes west to Rountzenheim . The TER Strasbourg -Lauterbourg railway passes through the village and there is a station in the commune which, however, appears to be disused. There is a belt of forest through the centre of the commune (the Biergrund) and a large forest in the south-east of the commune (the Unterwald) with substantial urbanisation in the north-west of the commune with the rest farmland.[3]
The Moder river comes from the south and passes through the south-west then the centre of the commune before forming half of the eastern border and continuing east to join the Rhine at Neuhaeusel . There is also a large reservoir in the north of the commune.[3]

Toponymy [ edit ]
According to the Cassini Map of 1750 Auen- was spelt Augenheim which in modern German would mean "of the eye" + -heim meaning "hamlet or village".
The suffix -heim indicates a Frankish origin since before the first creation of villages by the Alemanni . -heim signified a "hamlet" or a group of houses in French from which came the Alemannic hüs from which comes haus which is "house" in German.
In 1359 the village was called Oweheim and in 1596 it was Awenheim .
