The Kirchberg, between Thal and Berg

Formerly on the hill of Kirchberg, the inhabitants of Thal-Drulingen and Berg had a common origin. A first group separated from the community from the thirteenth century to settle at the foot of the mountain and formed the village of Thal (or "valley" in Germanic). It was not until the sixteenth century that the rest of the community left the hill to recreate another village of Berg ("mountain" in Germanic), along the Muhlbach, thus lower than its neighbor, Thal .
