Mosbach, District capital in Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

Mosbach lies at the junction of the Neckar and Elz rivers, surrounded by the Odenwald mountains at elevations between 134 and 354 meters.

The settlement developed around a Benedictine monastery in the 9th century and gained status as an Imperial free city in 1241.

The Palm House from 1610 and the Salzhaus represent examples of traditional German timber-frame construction in the pedestrian town center.

The town connects to major transport networks with the postal code 74821 and sits 35 kilometers east of Heidelberg.

During World War II, Mosbach contained a secret Daimler-Benz factory codenamed Goldfisch that manufactured airplane engines underground.
