Werne an der Lippe with its historic town center. Discover idyllic alleys, the medieval town hall on the market square and the graduation tower with the healing properties of brine. Werne was first mentioned in a Latin document in 834. This documented entry means that a small community that was worth mentioning must have already arisen around the chapel. From the 9th century to the 12th century traders. In 1362, Werne received confirmation from its sovereign, Bishop Adolf von Munster, to hold a free market (Sim-Jü) on Simon-Juda. In 1873 and 1874 a brine source was discovered while drilling for coal fields. The Werne thermal baths opened. In 1878 the facility was enlarged and the public limited company "Thermalbad Werne" was founded. The Werne colliery was sunk in 1899. This event marked the late start of industrialization for the city.
