    The history of Halverscheid in the Sauerland region dates back to the early days of Saxon settlement. It is believed that Halverscheid was a Saxon settlement. The ending "-scheid" indicates that the town was founded in a forest clearing. The town lies on a ridge and borders the towns of Halver, Schalksmühle, and Lüdenscheid. In early documents, the town was called "Haluerischede." In the winter of 1993, Dorothee and Wolfgang Armbrüster founded a therapeutic residential group for people with various needs on the outskirts of Halverscheid. They moved into a converted farmhouse.
