Incidentally, the first documentary mention of the place dates from 750 to 802: At that time, a Hadamar transferred an estate in "Weremgereshusen" to the Fulda monastery. In 1255 the counts of equals became feudal lords of the village.

When you come to Werningshausen, you immediately think of the monastery, but I also think of the fact that a former GDR footballer had his home here: Rüdiger Schnuphase
