history
Langenbieber was first mentioned in a document as "Biberaha" in 825, so it is the oldest of the three Bieber villages and probably the oldest of the entire municipality. The name of the place has changed several times over the years, so “Biberaha” first became “Obirbibraha” and finally Langenbieber. For a long time Langenbieber lay on the local route of a trade route that dates back to Celtic times.
