In the nineteenth century, the Kingdom of Prussia conducted land surveys every ten years for the purposes of taxing property correctly. The survey of 1828 survives for both Burg Reuland and nearby Ouren in  Allgemeine Verwaltung der Vermögensdokumentation–Messungen und Bewertungen. They have been provided courtesy of Mr. K. D. Klauser, Director of Zwischen Venn und Schneifel (ZVS), a local history museum and archive in St. Vith,

Belgium.
