Zusch

The owner of Züsch is mentioned for the first time in 1225 - "Knight Symon von Sussaü" -; he lived in a castle there. Around 1300 this came into the possession of the Hunolstein family from 1437 to 1776. Züsch belonged to the Hintere County of Sponheim as the "Palatinate-Baden". In 1504, Züsch was completely destroyed. Before 1569, the Reformation was introduced: In 1574, 20 families lived in Züsch. Around 1606, the village consisted of two parts - the upper and the lower - with 6 and 7 houses. In the turmoil of the In 1635, during the Thirty Years' War, the castle and village of Züsch were once again completely destroyed. It was only at the beginning of the 18th century that the population increased more and more. The breadwinners were employed in agriculture, ironworks or handicrafts. From 1776 to 1796, Züsch was part of Baden Territory under Margrave Karl Friedrich. The French occupied the local area in 1792; it became French territory in 1797 before it was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia in 1815. The Lutheran church built in 1724 was replaced in 1836/37 by the new building of today's Protestant church. The Catholic church, built in 1783/84 in the Baroque style. The church was expanded in 1848/51 and 1910/11 and is now one of the oldest churches in the area. In 1972 the town's 750th anniversary was celebrated. Source: Text information board

Neuhütten

The emergence of the town of Neuhütten is clearly related to the construction of the ironworks in the valley in 1694. Workers from Belgium soon settled in the area of today's town. While the people who directly belonged to the ironworks settled in the Schmelz district, the charcoal burners and woodcutters founded the Zinsershütten district around 1736. This district was named after the two Zinser families. The middle part of the community was founded in 1759/61. As early as 1756 there was a dispute between the owners of Züsch and the Birkenfeld office over the area of Schneidershütten, which was located near Muhl. The settlement was evacuated and the families had to leave their place of residence. They were assigned new living spaces on "a patch of land". Due to the French occupation around 1800, all three independent parts were united into one community called Neuhütten. In 1970, Muhl was separated from the community of Börfink and assigned to the community of Neuhütten. Source: Text information board
