The district covers 1651 hectares, of which 703 hectares are forested (status: 1961). The corridors around the locality are used for agriculture, while the forest areas are mainly to be found on the western, northern and eastern edges of the district. A wooded area of around 65 hectares in the north of the district is called Windhain and has given its name to a group of farmsteads to the west and a residential and weekend area to the southwest. A forest area in the west of the district bears the name Eisenkaute and is characterized by now wooded spoil heaps from the former Albert iron mine .
The lowest point of the district is on the northern border at about 233 m in the Ohm valley. The highest point is forested on the southeast border at 343.6 m in the forest district of Alter Zwilling .

Law
Substantive law
In Nieder-Ohmen, the municipal and official custom of Grünberg was a particular right . The Common Law was only included if the office I do not need regulations. This special law of old tradition retained its validity during the affiliation to the Grand Duchy of Hesse in the 19th century, until it was replaced on January 1, 1900 by the civil code that was uniformly valid throughout the German Empire .
Court constitution since 1803
In the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt , the judicial system was reorganized in an executive order of December 9, 1803. The “Hofgericht Gießen” was set up as a court of second instance for the province of Upper Hesse . The jurisdiction of the first instance was carried out by the offices or landlords and thus the “Amt Grünberg” was responsible for Nieder-Ohmen. The court court was the second instance court for normal civil disputes, and the first instance for civil family law cases and criminal cases. The superior court of appeal in Darmstadt was superordinate .
With the establishment of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in 1806, this function was retained, while the tasks of the first instance were transferred to the newly created regional courts in 1821 as part of the separation of jurisdiction and administration. " Landgericht Grünberg " was therefore from 1821 to 1879 the name of the court of first instance that was responsible for Nieder-Ohmen.
On the occasion of the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act with effect from October 1, 1879, as a result of which the previous grand-ducal Hessian regional courts were replaced by local courts in the same place, while the newly created regional courts now functioned as higher courts, the name was changed to "Amtsgericht Grünberg" and assigned to the district of the regional court of Giessen . On July 1, 1968, the Grünberg District Court was dissolved, Nieder-Ohmen was added to the Alsfeld District Court . In the Federal Republic of Germany, the superordinate instances are the Regional Court of Giessen , the Higher Regional Court of Frankfurt am Main and the Federal Court of Justice as the last instance.
