History
Volgelsheim was first mentioned in 739 under the name Folcoaldeshaim. The name has changed several times over the centuries to the present spelling. From 1871 to 1918, it belonged to the Alsace-Lorraine imperial territory in the German Empire. During this time, in 1880, a station was built in Prussian style. Until 1992, the French army had a garrison in Volgelsheim (Abbatucci barracks).
