In 1074 the small town was first mentioned in the Hasungen Monastery register as Riethun owned by the Merxhausen Monastery . 1261 learned the location record when the Mainzer Archbishop Werner the tenth to Bern Inge Bergenhusen and vineyard, up to this time by the knight Gerlach of Grifte as kurmainzisches Lehen held the Augustinerinnen Kloster Fritzlar poured. In 1356, Landgrave Heinrich II. Riede gave the Lords of Wehren a fief . In 1443 the von Meysenbug Riede bought it and since then it has been a fiefdom. They resided in Riede Castle from 1443 to 1810 . With the death of Heinrich von Meysenbug in 1810, Riede fell to the then sovereign, Jérôme Bonaparte , King of the Napoleonic Kingdom of Westphalia , who seven weeks later gave it to his master stable master, General Philippe François Maurice d ' , who was appointed Count von Ried (e) Albignac gave. He did not enjoy the property for long, however, because he soon fell out of favor with King Jérôme, returned to France and died in Paris in 1824. After the restitution of the Electorate of Hesse-Kassel in 1813, Elector Wilhelm I withdrew the rule of Riede as a settled fiefdom and offered it to Lieutenant General Wilhelm Engelhard, the son of the Hessian historiographer Regnerus Engelhard, with the simultaneous award of the expired Meysenbug noble title. Engelhard refused, however. In 1815 Wilhelm I transferred the castle to his son, Elector Wilhelm II , whom he banished there for four weeks in 1819 with his mistress Emilie Ortlöpp . The electoral prince Riede bitterly offered it to Lombard assessor Reusch for 40,000 thalers, which he had carefully looked after and maintained until then, but he refused. The castle and estate then went to the Chamberlain von Buttlar zu Elberberg for 34,000 thalers , who turned it into a family fidei commission in 1825. From 1825 to 2007 the manor and castle were owned by the Lords of Buttlar. The castle is now privately owned, was renovated from 2009 to 2010 and is not open to the public.

In 1959 the village community center was built. As part of the regional reform in Hesse , Riede lost its independence on December 31, 1971 and has since formed the municipality of Bad Emstal together with Balhorn , Merxhausen and Sand .
