geography
Niemberg is located 12 km northeast of Halle (Saale) on the Riede stream .
history
The first documentary mention of Niemberg dates back to July 28, 966. On this day Otto I donated a number of properties in Gau Neletici to the St. Peter Moritz monastery in Magdeburg in order to promote missionary activities in the Slavic lands. There it says: "... nova urbs et Thobrogora Uppinemque et Brehstedt ..." (in German: "... the new castle and Gutenberg as well as Oppin and Brachstedt ..."). The nova urbs is identical to the Burgstetten, the location of the “new castle”. The name itself was later spelled differently: 1184: Neyenburch , 1370: Nyenborch , 1387: Nienberg , after 1400: Nyemberg .
Niemberg and its current district of Eismannsdorf belonged to the Giebichenstein office in the hall circle of the ore monastery of Magdeburg . In 1680 they came to the Duchy of Magdeburg under Brandenburg-Prussian rule. Between 1807 and 1813 Niemberg and Eismannsdorf were in the canton of Oppin in the Kingdom of Westphalia ( Halle district of the Saale department ). From 1815 both places belonged to the Saalkreis in the Prussian province of Saxony .
On July 1, 1950, Eismannsdorf was incorporated into Niemberg. Until it was incorporated into Landsberg (Saalekreis) on January 1, 2010, Niemberg was an independent municipality in the administrative community of Eastern Saalkreis with the associated district of Eismannsdorf. The last mayor of Niemberg was Christian Kupski.
