Raubach

Raubach sits at 393 meters above sea level, completely surrounded by the forests of southern Odenwald within the Geo-Naturpark Bergstrasse-Odenwald.

The settlement began in 1749 when Countess Anne Sophie of Erbach-Fürstenau distributed 128 acres of forest land to seven landless subjects.

The district maintains four designated cultural monuments, including the historic Forsthaus Saubuche, which represents the architectural heritage of the region.

Raubach connects to neighboring districts through a network of hiking trails and paths that traverse the forested landscapes of the Odenwald region.

The local figure Jakob Ihrig, known as Raubacher Jockel, became recognized throughout the region as an original character of the Odenwald area.
