Bergneustadt, Administrative municipality in Oberbergischer Kreis, Germany.

The municipality extends across 37.89 square kilometers in North Rhine-Westphalia, positioned at an elevation of 355 meters above sea level.

The settlement originated in 1301 when Rutger of Altena constructed Niestat as a defensive outpost against the archbishop of Cologne.

The decorated Bunte Kirche in the Wiedenest district represents medieval architectural traditions with elements dating to the 12th century.

The city maintains multiple primary schools, secondary institutions, and banking facilities, including branches of Sparkasse and Deutsche Bank.

The local airfield accommodates light aircraft and helicopters, while the Wegeringhauser Tunnel closes seasonally to protect hibernating bat populations.
