Woffelsbach

The area in which Woffelsbach is located has been inhabited since Roman times, this is supported by archaeological. Little is known about the beginning of the current Woffelsbach. The oldest farms date from the seventeenth century. In 1794 the Woffelsbach was occupied by French revolutionary troops. The French occupation lasted until 1815 when the territory was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia.

Tourism in Woffelsbach started in the 1930s and received an enormous boost with the construction of the dam between 1955 and 1959. This created the possibilities for water sports that had not been available before.
