Neuerkirch is an Ortsgemeinde – a municipality belonging to a Verbandsgemeinde, a kind of collective municipality – in the Rhein-Hunsrück-Kreis (district) in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. It belongs to the Verbandsgemeinde Simmern-Rheinböllen, whose seat is in Simmern. Archaeological finds from the New Stone Age bear witness to settlement on the site where the village now stands. In 1302, Neuerkirch had its first documentary mention. Neuerkirch “on that side” of the Külzbach long belonged to the Duchy of Palatinate-Zweibrücken, while Neuerkirch “on this side” of the Külzbach belonged to Palatinate-Simmern and Electoral Palatinate. Beginning in 1794, Neuerkirch lay under French rule. In 1814 it was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia at the Congress of Vienna. After the First World War, Neuerkirch was temporarily occupied by the French once again. Until 1938, the two villages each side of the Külzbach remained administratively separate. Since 1946, Neuerkirch has been part of the then newly founded state of Rhineland-Palatinate. More information...
