Schwarzwald-Baar district
Schwarzwald-Baar district, Rural district in Baden-Württemberg, Germany
The Schwarzwald-Baar district spans across 1,025 square kilometers of varied terrain, encompassing mountains, forests, and valleys in southern Baden-Württemberg.
The formation of Schwarzwald-Baar district occurred in 1973 through the administrative merger of Donaueschingen and Villingen districts into a single governmental entity.
The district preserves traditional Black Forest craftsmanship through its watchmaking heritage in Furtwangen and numerous regional museums displaying local artisanal skills.
Twenty municipalities form the district, with Villingen-Schwenningen functioning as the administrative center and providing essential services to over 217,000 residents.
Both the Danube and Neckar rivers originate within the district boundaries, making it a critical water source point for major European waterways.
