Geography

Location

The municipality lies in the Vulkaneifel, a part of the Eifel known for its volcanic history, geographical and geological features, and even ongoing activity today, including gases that sometimes well up from the earth.

History

Castle Oberehe was built between 1696 and 1698 as a fortified manor house by Johann Christoph von Veyder, Lord at Malberg. It has two unique towers.

In the parish church is the grave of Auxiliary Bishop of Cologne Werner von Veyder. Stroheichs chapel dates from the 11th century[2].

The municipality of Oberehe-Stroheich came into being on 7 November 1970 through the merger of the two formerly self-administering municipalities of Oberehe and Stroheich.

Politics

Municipal council

The council is made up of 12 council members, who were elected by majority vote at the municipal election held on 7 June 2009, and the honorary mayor as chairman[3].
