Bruchsal is a city at the Western edge of the Kraichgau, approximately 20 kilometers Northeast of Karlsruhe in the state of Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany. After Karlsruhe, Bruchsal is the largest city in the district of Karlsruhe and is known for being Europe's largest asparagus producer and one of the economic centers of the region of Karlsruhe. The Bruchsal area also includes the cities and towns of Bad Schonborn, Forst, Hambrucken, Karlsdorf-Neuthard, Kraichtal, Kronau, Oberhausen-Rheinhausen, Ostringen, Philippsburg, Ubstadt-Weiher und Waghausel. Until 1972, Bruchsal was the seat of the district of Bruchsal, which was merged into the district of Karlsruhe as a result of the district reform, effective January 1, 1973.
 
Bruchsal's population passed the 20,000 mark around 1955. When the new Body of Municipal Law for Baden-Wurttemberg went into effect on April 1, 1956, the city was therefore immediately awarded Grobe Kreisstadt status. In addition, Bruchsal cooperates with the neighboring communities of Forst, Hambrücken and Karlsdorf-Neuthard in administrative matters. Bruchsal is located at the edge of the Upper Rhine River Plains and the Kraichgau along the Saalbach, which is a small tributary of the Rhine that joins it between Philippsburg and Oberhausen.

A city known for its historic myths and traditions, scenic beauty, cooperative people and luxurious hotels and cottages, Bruchsal is one of the favorite holiday destinations for most of the vacation lovers.
