Gœrlingen

Gœrlingen (; ) is a commune in the Bas-Rhin department in Grand Est in north-eastern France.

==History== There is evidence of the site having been occupied by a leading family during the Gallo-Roman period. By the thirteenth century Gœrlingen (albeit not spelled according to twenty-first century spelling) was numbered among the parishes under the archpriests of Bockenheim, the village being under the county of Sarrewerden to which the tithe was paid. In 1314 Gœrlingen was listed among the assets of the Abbey of Lixheim, but by 1542, when fears of a further Turkish attack on Vienna prompted a general census of assets in the empire, Gœrlingen had disappeared from the Lixheim records.
