Kleinich from the air

Kleinich is an Ortsgemeinde – a municipality belonging to a Verbandsgemeinde, a kind of collective municipality – in the Bernkastel-Wittlich districtinRhineland-Palatinate, Germany.

Geography[edit]

Location[edit]

The municipality lies in the Hunsrück between the Hunsrückhöhenstraße (“Hunsrück Heights Road”, a scenic road across the Hunsrück built originally as a military road on Hermann Göring’s orders) and the Middle Moselle. The nearest middle centres are Bernkastel-Kues and Morbach. Frankfurt-Hahn Airport lies only a few kilometres to the east. Kleinich belongs to the Verbandsgemeinde of Bernkastel-Kues, whose seat is in the like-named town.

Constituent communities[edit]

Kleinich’s Ortsteile are Kleinich, Oberkleinich, Thalkleinich, Fronhofen, Götzeroth, Emmeroth, Pilmeroth and Ilsbach.

History[edit]

In 1220, Kleinich had its first documentary mention. Together with the surrounding hamlets, it was part of the County of Sponheim.

On 15 May 1936, the name was changed from Cleinich to Kleinich. Until municipal administrative reform in Rhineland-Palatinate in 1969, the village belonged to the Bernkastel district, whose seat was at Bernkastel-Kues. On 7 June 1969, the municipality of Kleinich was newly founded out of the dissolved municipalities of Kleinich and Thalkleinich. Today’s municipality arose from a merger of the dissolved municipalities of Kleinich, Emmeroth, Fronhofen, Götzeroth, Ilsbach, Oberkleinich and Pilmeroth on 17 March 1974.

Today, Kleinich is part of the Verbandsgemeinde of Bernkastel-Kues. In 1996, Kleinich reached second place in Rhineland-Palatinate in the contest Unser Dorf soll schöner werden (“Our village should become lovelier”).
