Ahrem is a little village in Germany near Cologne. Ahrem is now part of the town Erftstadt. Geographical location , population 1,103 (2003). The first written documentation about Ahrem was in 1256, when the archbishop of Cologne mentions ''Ainhem''. However the name of the village points to roots in the time of the Franks; it means "village of Arn (or Arno)". This dating is supported by a cemetery which was dated to the 6th century. Ahrem belonged to the clerical state of Cologne, in the ''Amt Lechenich''. Originally it was a few separated farm buildings, but during the centuries grew a core settlement around the main street and the small brook ''Lechenicher Mühlengraben''. The village remained small - in 1801 it had just 215 citizens. During the communal reform of 1969 the village was incorporated into the new city of Erftstadt. ==External links== * () 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ahrem」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
