Nederasselt is a village in the municipality of Heumen in the province of Gelderland, the Netherlands.

== History == The village was first mentioned in 1301 as Nederassel, and means "lower open forest with ash (Fraxinus excelsior) trees". Neder (lower) has been added to distinguish between Overasselt. Nederasselt separated from Overasselt in the 12th century and developed on a ridge.
