History

Most of the lede belongs in a "History" section. Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 16:44, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

For more on history, here are some topics to consider:

• Is any pre-history known or at least pre-Roman history?
• This webpage mentions that a large Roman castra (a military installation) was found nearby: http://www.1911encyclopedia.org/Neuwied More on the Romans: http://www.neuwied.de/unesco-world-heritage-site-limes.html?&L=1
• Since there's no separate article for this Langendorf, include information about it.
• The effects of European wars on the city. Unfortunately, wars didn't end when the Thirty Years War did.
• The exodus of so many citizens to North America in the 18th century, the Palatines - causes and effect on the city?

To add to article

Basic information to add to this article: the origin/etymology of the place name "Neuwied." 173.88.246.138 (talk) 01:04, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Dubious

Edited the following assertion, which was already flagged as dubious: "In April 1797 the French, under General Louis Lazare Hoche, defeated the Austrians near Neuwied, this being their first decisive success in the French Revolutionary Wars." It now reads: "In April 1797 the French, under General Louis Lazare Hoche, defeated the Austrians near Neuwied." The original assertion was both uncited and incorrect. The battle was a French victory, but it was neither decisive nor was it the first French decisive victory of the French Revolutionary Wars. Djmaschek (talk) 19:40, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
