Mörfelden-Walldorf

Mörfelden-Walldorf is a town in Groß-Gerau that brings together two historical communities. The area offers residential neighborhoods, woodlands, and local services spread across a region near Frankfurt.

The town was formed by combining two communities with distinct origins spanning centuries. Mörfelden appeared in medieval records, while Walldorf developed later as a separate settlement before the two joined administratively.

The municipal coat of arms displays an oak tree with six leaves and three acorns, alongside two flails and a horseshoe, reflecting the local forestry heritage.

The town has good transport links, especially toward the nearby Frankfurt Airport. Visitors will find local facilities and shops convenient to reach within the town center.

The area holds a difficult chapter from World War II that was long obscured from public knowledge. Researchers uncovered evidence of a wartime detention facility that had been largely forgotten in local memory.
