Prehistory to Middle Ages

Archeological excavations prove that the site of Mombach had been already settled in prehistoric times. A flat hatchet dated to the early Bronze Age has been found in Mombach as well as many discoveries from Roman times. The formation of the locality happened most likely during the Frankish realm. The name Mombach is derived most likely from the Frankish name ''Muno'' (Munno). The 750-year jubilee dates back to a document of 1256 mentioning the city, but the locality is surely older.
