TOWN PRESENTATION

The origin of the first known collection of houses in the suburbs back to the Gallo-Roman times. While digging the ground in the township said "Im Thal," was discovered by chance two urns and a farthing of money used in the effigy of the emperor Gordianus. This whole culture was swallowed up by the invading Germanic peoples in 406 and the following year without even leaving a name.

It knows no other document mentioning the town that is prior to the 14th century. The first, dated 1322, bearing the name "Druldingen" and lies in the Archives of the Protestant Church of Sarre-Union, the second is the inventory of County Sarrewerden income of 1347-1350, kept in the departmental archives and the third is an account of a papal legate for a collection made in the diocese of Metz, it is the Vatican and is dated November 20, 1361.

It contains the first mention of the PARISH Drulingen. During the Middle Ages until the Revolution of 1789, Drulingen has always shared the fate Sarrewerden County and was annexed with him to the French Republic by a simple decree of the Convention of 14 February 1793.

No less curious is the fact that the editor of "Generaltabbelle" of 1742 had already anticipated the future by saying that the village, thanks to its location on the road would have all facilities to develop. In the meantime, Drulingen was one of the smallest villages in the county.
