The annual rainfall is 1,205 millimetres (47.4 in), which is in the upper tenth of the values recorded by the measuring stations of the German Weather Service.

Surface finds from the Celtic and Roman times were discovered or excavated in Bosen, Eisen, Eiweiler, Mosberg-Richweiler, Neunkirchen (Nahe), Nohfelden, Selbach, Sötern, Türkismühle, Walhausen and Wolfersweiler.

Since the early Middle Ages (around 1200) until July 1879 and in the years 1946/47, when Nohfelden was moved from Rhineland-Palatinate to Saarland, the historical development of the 13 districts has differed.

The 13 districts of the municipality Nohfelden belonged to the Saar Department and were assigned to five Mairien (mayoralties): After the defeat of Napoleon in October 1813, France reverted to its boundaries of January 1, 1792 by peace treaty.

As a result of the abdication and the renunciation of the succession to the throne of Frederick Augustus II, Grand Duke of Oldenburg on November 11, 1918, the Principality became the Birkenfeld district of the Rhine Province.

In 1935 the Saar was reunited with the German Reich under the name "Saarland", once again shuffling the administrative areas.

In April 2006 ten years of partnership was celebrated in Nohfelden with a large delegation from Jelesnia.

The center offers year-round comprehensive courses in almost all areas of artistic design for all ages (drawing or painting, ceramics, plastic figures, stone sculptures, prints, mixed media, calligraphy).

Englischer Garten in Gonnesweiler: A landscaped garden, which was created in English style, leads past the Nepomuk Chapel and offers a circular route, which is also suitable for wheelchair users.

It is a family-friendly destination with wild area with animals such as peacocks, goats, ducks, geese and deer.

According to legend, buried under the multi-ton Hinkelstein is a golden carriage with the war chest of Attila the Hun.

The Saarland Folk Dance and Traditional Costume Association opened the museum in Nohfelden in September 2005.

This historic building, which survived even the French Revolution, had to be demolished in 1970, as the main street adjacent to the chapel was extended.

Volunteer citizens of the Cultural Association began reconstructing the Nepomuk Chapel in 2005, but at a different location Jagdgut Bocksborn zu Gonnesweiler: built in 1894 by the Saarbrücken engineer Fritz von Rexroth.

Waldkapelle in Selbach: It is idyllically situated by the forest, so many cyclists and hikers come by to take a break and light a candle.

High wire course, archery, petting zoo, swimming pool and bowling attract many visitors.

Buchwald in Nohfelden The 250-year-old larch, a demonstration charcoal kiln, and the largest Douglas fir in southwest Germany are worth seeing in the extensive Beech forest.

Here children can play, have fun and celebrate birthdays while the parents relax and enjoy the view of the lake.

Located directly on the Bosiland is a Bavarian-style beer garden, offering up to 3500 seats and ideal for a short break after a tour around the lake.

Freizeitpark Neunkirchen/Nahe The amusement park has an observation tower, a miniature golf course and a large play area for children and families.
