This remodelling was made possible by the realignment of "Landesstraße" (State Road) 160, which now bypasses the village. The council is made up of 12 council members, who were elected by majority vote at the municipal election held on 7 June 2009, and the honorary mayor as chairman. Niederwörresbach's mayor is Arnold Weinz, and his deputies are Werner Dalheimer and Rudolf Peter Juchem. The German blazon reads: "Schild schräglinks geteilt, linke Seite in Silber und eine nach oben geöffnete Kette mit roten Klickersteinen, rechte Seite rot-silbern geschacht, belegt mit einem schwarzen Dreiberg." The municipality's arms might in English heraldic language be described thus: Per bend sinister argent a chain of clicker stones open to dexter chief gules, and chequy gules and argent issuant from base a mount of three sable. The chain of stones on the dexter (armsbearer's right, viewer's left) side refers to the local tradition of the "clicker grinders" ("Klickerschleifer" – see explanation under The tradition of "clickers"), while the "chequy" field on the sinister (armsbearer's left, viewer's right) side is a reference to the village's former allegiance to the County of Sponheim, and the mount of three – a charge called a "Dreiberg" in German heraldry – stands for the "Amt" within the County of Sponheim in which Niederwörresbach lay, namely Herrstein (whose name literally means "Lordstone"). Niederwörresbach even today lies in a "Verbandsgemeinde" of that same name. The following are listed buildings or sites in Rhineland-Palatinate's Directory of Cultural Monuments:  Niederwörresbach has a long tradition in the craft of "clickers" (called "Klicker" in German). These are ball-shaped, polished agate stones. Agate grinding was an arduous job. The raw stones had to be brought to the village from Idar on foot so that they could be processed the next morning in the grinder's workshop. The so-called "Schleiferkrankheit" – "grinder's illness" – caused by agate dust, lying before the grindstone, poor ventilation and schnapps, which was drunk to suppress the affliction, saw to it that "Klickerschliffer" – "clicker grinders" – did not get older than 40 years.
