Economy and Infrastructure

The rural structure of the past centuries that determined the place has only changed in recent times. In the time of National Socialism , a premelting plant for the iron ore mine of Doggererz AG near Blumberg was to be built west of the town . The construction work that had started at the end of April 1940 was canceled after a year, as the premelting plant near Kehl was to be built after changes to the plan . The only building completed in Neudingen was a warehouse.

traffic

The place is on the Black Forest Railway .
