Hofheim am Taunus

The town extends across six districts at the foot of Taunus mountains, with forests covering forty percent of its total surface area.

First documented in 1254 as Hoveheim, the settlement grew from a Frankish foundation to become the administrative center of Main-Taunus-Kreis in 1980.

The town museum presents art exhibitions throughout the year, while numerous festivals and markets maintain local traditions in the historic center.

Located 20 kilometers from Frankfurt, Wiesbaden, and Mainz, the town connects to major cities through the A66 motorway and two S-Bahn stations.

The elevation varies from 121 meters in Lorsbachtal valley to 410 meters at Judenkopf peak in Langenhain, creating distinct microclimates across the municipality.
