As the former Dalsheim town hall, the building was once the centre of the village administration. The earlier designation "by dem Dantzhuse" refers to a larger hall that served the village community as a festival hall and meeting room. A community hall that was destroyed in the Palatinate War of Succession in 1689 is mentioned in 1674. Today, the building is used as a training room for the Malteser as well as a storage room.
