Adelsheim (Baden-Wurttemberg)
Germany is located in Central Europe and it shares borders with Denmark in the North, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and France in the West, Austria and Switzerland in the South and Poland and the Czech Republic in the East. The North Sea and the Baltic Sea represent additional National Borders in the North. The official language of Germany is German and Berlin is the capital. The climate is quite pleasant with almost all variety of seasonal flavors as temperate, marine, cool, cloudy, wet winters and summers, occasional warm, tropical foehn wind and high relative humidity.
Germany is divided into 16 states which are further subdivided into 439 districts and cities. Germany is one of the largest European economy and the third largest economy in the world in real terms, placed behind the United States and Japan, and fifth behind the United States, China, India and Japan counted by purchasing power parity.
Adelsheim is a small city in northern Baden-Wurttemberg, about 30 kilometers north of Heilbronn. The state-recognized resort of Adelsheim in the Neckar-Odenwald-Kreis looks back on a 1,200-year heritage. Adelsheim lies at the mouth of the river Kirnau which comes from the west, emptying into the river Seckach coming from the north. The combined stream was used in building the city fortifications. Farther downstream, the Seckach flows by Mockmuhl into the Jagst, then into the Neckar and then into the Rhine.
The Adelsheim area is part of the greater geographical region known as the Bauland, a mountain range stretching from the Odenwald in the northwest to the Jagst valley in the south plus to the Tauber valley in the east. Part of the municipality's area lies within the Neckartal-Odenwald Nature Park.
Adelsheim was already home to some Jews in the middle Ages. The Transport of Adelsheim lies on the Frankenbahn railway and the Neckartalbahn railway, and thereby also on the S-Bahn RheinNeckar. Since December 2003 both hourly trains on S-Bahn line S1 and regional express trains every two hours run on that line.
Adelsheim is the kind of town you daydream about. It is a city with endless recreational opportunities, rich history, and modern day luxuries.
