Sandhofen, Administrative district in northern Mannheim, Germany

Sandhofen spans across 26.71 square kilometers of land, combining residential neighborhoods with agricultural areas and military facilities at Coleman Airfield.

First documented in 888, this northern district officially merged with the city of Mannheim in 1913, marking a significant administrative transformation.

The district maintains seven kindergartens, multiple schools, and numerous community organizations, from accordion orchestras to water sports clubs.

The district connects to central Mannheim through tram line 3, while the local marketplace at der Stich operates twice weekly on Tuesdays and Fridays.

Coleman Barracks formerly housed the only United States Army prison facility in Europe and served as the main helicopter maintenance center.
