Bad Wimpfen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bad Wimpfen is a historic spa town in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It lies in the district of Heilbronn, north of the city Heilbronn, on the river Neckar. The former Free Imperial City was a Hessian exclave from 1803 until 1945, and its current legal affiliation is not clear.
[edit] Geography
The city lies on the western bank of the Neckar river, north of Heilbronn. It is divided into two parts: the older Wimpfen im Tal (Wimpfen in the valley), and, to its west, Wimpfen am Berg (Wimpfen on the hill), where the city center has been located since the middle ages. The village of Hohenstadt also belongs to the municipality of Bad Wimpfen.
The neighboring municipalities (going clockwise, beginning in the south) are: Heilbronn, Bad Rappenau, Offenau, Bad Friedrichshall, Untereisesheim, and Neckarsulm.
