Nentershausen is an Ortsgemeinde – a community belonging to a Verbandsgemeinde – in the Westerwaldkreis in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.
The community lies in the Westerwald between Limburg an der Lahn and Montabaur on the edge of the Nassau Nature Park. The community belongs to the Verbandsgemeinde of Montabaur, a kind of collective municipality. Its seat is in the like-named town.
Nentershausen’s immediate neighbours are Eppenrod, Kleinholbach, Görgeshausen, Heilberscheid, Niedererbach and Nomborn.
In 841, Nentershausen had its first documentary mention.
The council is made up of 13 council members, including the extraofficial mayor (Bürgermeister), who were elected in a municipal election on 13 June 2004.
The community’s arms are formed out of its three court seals. Nentershausen, which came from the hereditary holdings of the Counts of Diez, was finally passed to the Electorate of Trier in 1564. The joint Trier-Nassau overlordship first worked out the Treaty of Diez of 1564. The Diez lion and the Trier cross display this collective political fate. The cloverleaves are taken as a special local Nentershausen emblem.
