Sasbachwalden

Sasbachwalden covers 18.26 square kilometers on the western slopes of Hornisgrinde mountain, with over 70% of its territory consisting of dense Black Forest woodlands.

First documented in 1347, the municipality gained independence in 1817 after centuries of belonging to the Hochstift Strasbourg until the secularization in 1803.

The town celebrates Black Forest traditions through local festivals showcasing traditional woodcrafts, kirsch production, wine-making, and regional dialects passed down through generations of residents.

Visitors can reach the spa town using postal code 77887 and dialing code 07841, with accommodations and wellness clinics available for tourists seeking therapeutic treatments.

The municipality consists entirely of scattered hamlets and individual farmsteads without ever developing a dense village center or traditional urban core throughout its history.
