history

Niederwangen was first mentioned in 856 as Nidironwangun . The municipal area was a main team of the imperial city of Wangen, which obtained the high and low jurisdiction from the Counts of Montfort-Tettnang . Only a few hamlets remained in the high jurisdiction of the counts until around 1700. In 1802 the area fell to the Electorate of Bavaria and in 1810, together with the city of Wangen, to Württemberg . In 1819 the community of Niederwangen was established in the Oberamt Wangen. Niederwangen was incorporated into the city of Wangen im Allgäu on February 1, 1972 as part of the municipal reform.
