Neuburgweier is a part of the city Rheinstetten, which was first established as a municipality in the course of an administrative reform in 1975.

In terms of inhabitants and area, it is the smallest of the three city parts - Neuburgweier, Forchheim and Mörsch [de].

The gravel pit, which is naturally filled with water, is now called Fermasee [de] and is used for swimming and fishing.

Until 1707, Neuburgweier was a weiler (comparable to the English concept of a hamlet) belonging to Neuburg am Rhein.

[1] It is assumed that Neuburg am Rhein was founded in 1100 by the diocese of Speyer to secure a place to cross the river.
