history

Niederneunforn in 1959

Nidern Niuvron was first mentioned in a document in 1276 . The lower jurisdiction of Niederneunforn and a fifth of Wilen bei Neunforn was owned by the Ittingen Monastery until 1501 , then it was acquired by the Hünegg and soon by the Leuenberg. An opening was written in 1501. Until 1798 - except from 1680 to 1688 - Niederneunforn was under the same court lords as Oberneunforn , but kept its own judges.

Niederneunforn was always part of the Neunforn parish.

Arable, fruit and especially viticulture and animal husbandry shaped Niederneunforn.
