Within the municipal area, until German Reunification on 3 October 1990, lay the Federal Republic's geographical centre. Rennerod lies in the Westerwald between Limburg an der Lahn in the south and Siegen 30 km to the north. Bad Marienberg lies 10 km to Rennerod's northwest. Through the town flows the Holzbach. Northeast of the town is found the 613 m-high Alsberg, some 2 km north-northeast of the Breitenbach Reservoir on the Breitenbach, an eastern tributary to the river Nister. Rennerod has one district named Emmerichenhain. In 1217, Reynderode had its first documentary mention. Its founding, however, might go back to Carolingian times.
