**Norheim** (in the local speech *Norem*) is an *[Ortsgemeinde](/source/Ortsgemeinde_(Germany))* – a [municipality](/source/Municipalities_of_Germany) belonging to a *[Verbandsgemeinde](/source/Verbandsgemeinde)*, a kind of collective municipality – in the [Bad Kreuznach](/source/Bad_Kreuznach_(district)) [district](/source/Districts_of_Germany) in [Rhineland-Palatinate](/source/Rhineland-Palatinate), [Germany](/source/Germany). It belongs to the [*Verbandsgemeinde* of Rüdesheim](/source/R%C3%BCdesheim_(Verbandsgemeinde)), whose seat is in the [like-named town](/source/R%C3%BCdesheim_(Nahe)). Norheim is a state-recognized [tourism](/source/Tourism) community (*Fremdenverkehrsort*).[3] and a [winegrowing](/source/Winegrowing) village.

## Geography

### Location

Norheim lies in the [Nahe](/source/Nahe_(Rhine)) valley near the Rheingrafenstein with its [castle](/source/Rheingrafenstein_Castle), and near the Rotenfels. Norheim's elevation is 135 m above [sea level](/source/Sea_level) and its municipal area measures 3.15 km2.[4]

### Neighbouring municipalities

Clockwise from the north, Norheim's neighbours are the municipality of [Traisen](/source/Traisen%2C_Germany), the town of [Bad Münster am Stein-Ebernburg](/source/Bad_M%C3%BCnster_am_Stein-Ebernburg) and the municipalities of [Niederhausen](/source/Niederhausen) and [Hüffelsheim](/source/H%C3%BCffelsheim), all of which likewise lie within the Bad Kreuznach district.

### Constituent communities

Also belonging to Norheim are the outlying homesteads of Brunnenhof, Buchenländerhof, Wasserkraftwerk, Kronenhof and Haus am Tunnel.[5]

### Climate

Norheim is especially advantageous for its climate. Framed as it is by crags and wooded mountains, its location brings it little rain and a mild climate. Moreover, the soils that have formed from the weathering of the [volcanic crags](/source/Volcanic_rock) represent the best prerequisites for Norheim's [winegrowing](/source/Winegrowing).[6]

## History

At the foot of the [porphyry](/source/Porphyry_(geology)) massif known as the Rotenfels, Norheim has a 1,200-year-long history as the oldest wine village on the [Nahe](/source/Nahe_(Rhine)), at least going by historical records. In 766, Norheim had its first documentary mention as *Narheim in pago Nahgowe* ("Norheim in the [Nahegau](/source/Nahegau) country") when the [Frankish](/source/Franks) [free noble](/source/Edelfrei) Adalger sold his landhold, which lay in *Narheim*, for two pounds of [silver](/source/Silver) to [Lorsch Abbey](/source/Lorsch_Abbey) on the [Bergstraße](/source/Bergstra%C3%9Fe_Route). The record of this is contained in the abbey's old directory of holdings, the [Lorsch codex](/source/Lorsch_codex) (*Codex Laureshamensis*), document no. 2007. The name *Narheim* may have had its roots in *nava*, a [Celtic](/source/Celtic_languages) word for "flowing water". Over the years, the river's name underwent various changes: *Naba*, *Naha*, *Nae*, *Noh*, *Nahe*. Several times over the centuries, Norheim's overlords changed as secular princes replaced those who had gone before. Adalger's old landhold was exchanged by Lorsch in 962 with [Saint Maximin's Abbey](/source/St._Maximin's_Abbey%2C_Trier) in [Trier](/source/Trier). In 1190, the Lords of Bolanden were enfeoffed with the jurisdiction and holdings by the [Holy Roman Empire](/source/Holy_Roman_Empire). By way of the Rhinegraves and the [Counts of Sponheim](/source/County_of_Sponheim), the Lords of Sickingen at [Castle Ebernburg](/source/Burg_Ebernburg) became the village's rulers in 1440, ruling for more than 300 years. When the last lord of this line died out in 1768, the now heirless [fief](/source/Fief) passed back to the overlord, the [Electorate of the Palatinate](/source/Electorate_of_the_Palatinate). After the [Napoleonic Wars](/source/Napoleonic_Wars) had ended and after the decisions had been made at the [Congress of Vienna](/source/Congress_of_Vienna) in 1815, Norheim became [Prussian](/source/Prussia) and was assigned to the *[Oberamt](/source/Amt_(country_subdivision))* of Kreuznach.[7]

During the municipal election held on 09-Jun-2024 the lone candidate for mayor, Tristan Heringklee (CDU), had not reached the required absolute majority, missing it by 12 votes. Due to this a special election was held on 10-Nov-2024, during which the candidate Uwe Sax won the absolute majority, receiving a percentage of votes of 78.2%.[19] His opponent Tristan Heringklee received a percentage of votes of 21.8%.

### Coat of arms

The municipality's [arms](/source/Coat_of_arms) might be described thus: Azure on ground vert, a steed passant argent upon which Saint Martin of Tours of the same cutting with his sword a piece of his cloak gules for a kneeling beggar man of the third.

This scene from [Saint Martin's](/source/Martin_of_Tours) life appears in many German civic coats of arms. Indeed, Norheim's arms are not even the only ones in the [Bad Kreuznach](/source/Bad_Kreuznach_(district)) [district](/source/Districts_of_Germany) to bear this image, with [Meddersheim](/source/Meddersheim) and [Rüdesheim an der Nahe](/source/R%C3%BCdesheim_an_der_Nahe) likewise bearing arms depicting Martin cutting off a piece of his cloak for a beggar.

### Town partnerships

Norheim fosters partnerships with the following places:[21]

- [Tannay](/source/Tannay%2C_Ni%C3%A8vre), [Nièvre](/source/Ni%C3%A8vre), [France](/source/France) since 1967

- - In 2012, Norheim and Tannay, a village and [commune](/source/Communes_of_France) of several hundred inhabitants in [Burgundy](/source/Burgundy), marked the 45th anniversary of their partnership, an occasion that merited a visit to Norheim's Kronenhof winery by the Speaker of the [Rhineland-Palatinate](/source/Rhineland-Palatinate) [*Landtag*](/source/Landtag_of_Rhineland-Palatinate), Joachim Mertes, who is also Chairman of the Rhineland-Palatinate-Burgundy Partnership Association.

### More about buildings

#### Roman Catholic church

The [Roman Catholic](/source/Catholic_Church) [church](/source/Church_(building)) at Norheim was erected in stages (particularly the steeple) starting in the first half of the 13th century. From 1363, it was incorporated into the Holy Cross Foundation at [Mainz](/source/Mainz). After the [Reformation](/source/Protestant_Reformation), and until 1698, the church was used by [Protestants](/source/Protestantism). It was given its [Gothic Revival](/source/Gothic_Revival_architecture) makeover in 1864, while the steeple was made taller in 1911 with the addition of a slated belfry and a pointed, eight-sided spire. The steeple stands at the east and earlier formed the quire. The current entrance was also pierced through the walls in 1911.

#### Mills

Norheim had three [watermills](/source/Watermill). The oldest was the *Witt'sche Mühle*, which had its first documentary mention in 1471. It was an Old German channel mill with an [undershot waterwheel](/source/Water_wheel#Undershot_wheel). Ground there were grain and, according to Adam Karst (1838–1852), also [oilseed](/source/Vegetable_oil). Because it was an estate mill (*Bannmühle*), Norheim villagers had to use it, and no other, to grind their grain. After the *Witt'sche Mühle* was sold to the miller Krieger, it was shut down in 1833.

The second mill is the *Steinsche Mühle* (as of 1910 *Krugermühle*). It stands 20 m below the *Witt'sche Mühle* and was built in 1722 with the Sickingens' baronial approval as an allodial mill. Because Norheim villagers were bound to the mill upstream from his, the then owner, Stein, had to seek custom elsewhere, in [Traisen](/source/Traisen%2C_Germany) and [Hüffelsheim](/source/H%C3%BCffelsheim). He also bought corn at the *[Kreuznacher](/source/Bad_Kreuznach) Kornmarkt*, also selling the flour there. The *Krugermühle* was a gristmill with its own millpond and an undershot Zuppinger wheel (a kind of waterwheel invented by the 19th-century [Swiss](/source/Switzerland) [engineer](/source/Engineer) Walter Zuppinger). This mill was run for many years, and was shut down only in 1975. It gained a new lease on life in 1995 when it was fitted with a new waterwheel and an [induction generator](/source/Induction_generator). Its then projected yearly output was roughly 200,000 [kWh](/source/Kilowatt_hour).

The third mill is the *Weidenmühle* on the road leading eastwards out of the village. It was built in 1726 by the miller Matthias Schmitt. It was an allodial mill conceded by the Sickingens in which grain was ground. It was driven by an undershot waterwheel. After the *Witt'sche Mühle* was shut down in the early 19th century, the *Weidenmühle* was Norheim's most important mill. It was shut down in 1950, though, when the last miller, Hans Brosius, died.

### Transport

Running through Norheim is *[Landesstraße](/source/Landesstra%C3%9Fe)* 235, which is met in the village centre by *Landesstraße* 236. Right at this [T-junction](/source/Three-way_junction) is the [railway station](/source/Railway_station) (actually only a halt; the building has been torn down) on the [Nahe Valley Railway](/source/Nahe_Valley_Railway) ([Bingen](/source/Bingen_am_Rhein)–[Saarbrücken](/source/Saarbr%C3%BCcken)).

In both those places are found [interchanges](/source/Interchange_(road)) onto *[Bundesstraßen](/source/Bundesstra%C3%9Fe)* (41 or 48 as the case may be), which lead northeastwards to [Bad Kreuznach](/source/Bad_Kreuznach) and the [Autobahn](/source/Autobahn) [A 61](/source/Bundesautobahn_61) ([Koblenz](/source/Koblenz)–[Ludwigshafen](/source/Ludwigshafen)) just beyond.

### Winegrowing

Growing in more than 50 ha of [vineyards](/source/Vineyard), mainly on south-facing slopes, are grapes that the winemakers make into outstanding wine. The wines from the individual winegrowing locations – *Einzellagen* – of Kirschheck, Kafels, Oberberg and Dellchen enjoy international reputations.[24]
