The Scheid peninsula also belongs to the place . There are campsites and holiday apartments, a bathing beach with a lawn and playground, inns and a landing stage for passenger ships.

history

People already settled in the area of ​​today's Nieder-Werbe in prehistoric times, as two ramparts from the La Tène period (approx. 500 BC ) testify.

Nieder-Werbe, which alternately belonged to the monasteries Berich , Netze and Werbe , was first mentioned in a document in 1196. When the Edertalsperre was built from 1908 to 1914, a lot also changed for Nieder-Werbe. Ten courtyards and the church had to give way to the lake. After the construction of the barrier, however, tourism developed into the most important branch of the economy today.

On October 1, 1971, the previously independent community of Nieder-Werbe was incorporated into the town of Waldeck.
