Frankenthal, Historic municipality in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.
The municipality extends across the Rhineland-Palatinate region with an elevation of 99 meters, featuring industrial structures and administrative buildings throughout its streets.
The settlement, first mentioned as Franconodal in 772, transformed from a fishing village into a chartered town in 1577 with the arrival of Dutch Protestant settlers.
The remnants of the 12th-century abbey church and two preserved town gates from the 1770s represent the architectural legacy of Frankenthal's past centuries.
The municipality maintains several governmental offices, industrial facilities, and public services, connected by efficient transportation networks to nearby Mannheim.
Former porcelain manufacturing facilities from 1755 to 1794 mark Frankenthal's industrial heritage, contributing to its development as a manufacturing center.
