Kinheim is an Ortsgemeinde – a municipality belonging to a Verbandsgemeinde, a kind of collective municipality – in the Bernkastel-Wittlich district in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. In 1161, the placename Kinheim had its first documentary mention. The name’s meaning is uncertain. It is believed that the determiner Ken is of pre-Roman origin. The root word Heim suggests that Kinheim was an early Frankish settlement. The outlying centre of Kindel across the river was named as early as 1069 as Kennelle, and was later called Kinelle (1304) or Kinnel (1404). Kindel is surely a daughter settlement of Kinheim, for Kennelle means “little Kindel”. Furthermore, Kinheim had an outlying centre in the Alf valley, today’s Kinderbeuern (1296: Kynheymerbüren), which until sometime about 1740 was politically united with the municipality of Kinheim.
