Niederahr

Niederahr is an Ortsgemeinde – a community belonging to a Verbandsgemeinde – in the Westerwaldkreis in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.

The community lies in the Westerwald between Montabaur and Hachenburg. Through the community flows the Ahrbach. The community belongs to the Verbandsgemeinde of Wallmerod, a kind of collective municipality. Its seat is in the like-named town.

In 959, Niederahr had its first documentary mention.

The municipal council is made up of 12 council members who were elected in a majority vote in a municipal election on 13 June 2004.

Right through the community runs Bundesstraße 255, linking Montabaur and Rennerod. The nearest Autobahn interchange is Montabaur on the A 3 (CologneFrankfurt), some 5 km away.

There was a station of the Cross Westerwald railway (Montabaur - Wallmerod - Westerburg - Rennerod - Herborn) in Niederahr, but nowadays this line is only in service for fright traffic.

The nearest InterCityExpress stop is the railway station at Montabaur on the Cologne-Frankfurt high-speed rail line.
