Stundwiller is the village where my Staebell ancestors originated. It is located in the northern part of Bas-Rhin, Alsace, France. Stundwiller is sometimes known (in German) as Stundweiler.

Between 1746 and 1766 Stundwiller, together with Oberroedern and Aschbach, formed part of the community of Obergericht. These three communities were again merged 17 June 1974 under the name Stundwiller, and later separated once again into independent communities.
