The town of Quatzenheim belongs to the Community of Communes Ackerland at Truchtersheim Township and Borough of Strasbourg-Campagne. It has its headquarters in the City of Quatzenheim, 22 Main Street (Phone: +33 3 88 69 02 75 - Fax: +33 3 88 69 17 12 - Email: quatz.mairie @ orange.fr)

The Municipality is located in the heart Quatzenheim Kochersberg, the former granary of the Strasbourg area. The soil is fertile and the farms are still relatively numerous. The reliefs are wavy, typical of the region.

Quatzenheim is twenty kilometers from the city of Strasbourg on which it is connected by a road which turns into highway approaching the suburbs. It is located at the intersection of five roads leading to neighboring villages Hurtigheim, Furdenheim, Fessenheim-the-bottom-Dossenheim Kochersberg and Wiwersheim.

The town is also served by two bus lines that connect to Strasbourg, and Truchtersheim and Molsheim, respectively chief town and remote sub-prefecture of 5 and 10 km.

The majority of the assets goes to the city of Strasbourg, even on Molsheim. A minority remains on the county, which has no major employment areas.

The topography of the old village is also typical of a lot of villages in the region (Hüfedorf) and includes the old firm U-shaped around the Lutheran Church along two axes: the Lord Street and Main Street. The evolution of the village was built mainly along the Roman road - old road from Strasbourg to Saverne - then the road Furdenheim.

Some subdivisions of detached houses were added in the 1980s and 1990s. Since 2000, we also observe two trends that seem to be confirmed: the construction of small collectives and rehabilitation of the main farmhouse to residential use. Nevertheless, the expansion of the area is built gradually, despite the strong pressure due to the estate near the city of Strasbourg.

The town's origins date back to the Neolithic (4000 BC). A necropolis has been discovered in 1938, it has been studied by researchers from CNRS. The discovery in the early 20th century, skeletons and Neolithic tombs and in 1957 Merovingian tombs confirm, as in many villages Kochersberg and Alsace, only very long, it felt good in the environment close Quatzenheim. It is true that the Souffel and fertile land have contributed to a sedentary population.

The name comes from the Quatzenheim Germanic tribe who established themselves in Chaten 742 and named it the village Chattenheim.

From the 12th to the 14th century, various lords took possession in 1127 Impertus, Cuno in 1147, Reinfried in 1170, Bolso in 1280 and Katarina Von Quatzenheim in 1322. In the 14th century, there Mullenheim build up a castle that was burned and completely destroyed after the battle Entzheim in 1674. This castle was located behind the present church was the chapel of the castle. In the 16th century, after Landsberg, then Ratsamhausen, nobles Oberkirch (Baden) bought the village and were the owners until the revolution. From the 16th to the 17th century, successive wars, the Peasants' War to the War of 30 years, profoundly shape the character of the region.

From the 18th century, Quatzenheim thrives on the new road through the Kochersberg to reach the market Brumath and develops in a framework of rural architecture, much of religious diversity among the Protestant and Jewish.

In 1801, the Municipality had 285 inhabitants, for 820 inhabitants in 2009. Today, the inhabitants of Quatzenheim worked predominantly in industrial activities and services of Strasbourg and its region. However, the landscape and habitat are testament to the farming village.

The life of the Jewish community has deeply marked the village of Quatzenheim. Until 1988, a kosher grocery products offered to believers Jewish faiths, whether or not originating Quatzenheim. In addition to the synagogue of the 18th century, renovated in the 19th and closed in 1940, the Jewish cemetery located at the exit of the village towards Wiwersheim always shows the importance of community in local life. Even if other communities had settled in villages Kochersberg Quatzenheim is the only one with a cemetery containing graves of a hundred, a village that was the same seat of the rabbinate from 1880 to 1910. Without sufficient numbers of men, the Jewish community of this village died out in the 80s, but not without a lasting impression on the history of this small rural village divided between two denominations, Lutheran and Jewish. Note that the sacred elements from the synagogue (a curtain of the cabinet and a roll of holy Torah) are preserved in the Museum of Folk Art Marmoutier where they are visible as well as many elements from various Jewish communities from Alsace .
