Limbach-Oberfrohna, Urban municipality in Zwickau district, Germany
Limbach-Oberfrohna is an urban municipality in the Zwickau district, located in the Saxon region between Chemnitz and Zwickau. The town sits in a landscape of valleys and hills, serving as a regional hub for connections and local commerce.
The city was formed on July 1, 1950, when two separate towns merged during the post-war reconstruction period. This union reflected the administrative changes that reshaped the region following the Second World War.
The town hall, originally a manor house acquired in 1911, serves as the social and administrative heart where locals and visitors encounter the city's civic life. The building reflects how this place has transformed from a rural settlement into a modern urban center.
The city has good public transportation links to neighboring towns and direct access to the Bundesautobahn 4 and Bundesautobahn 72. Visitors can explore the place easily and reach larger regional centers without difficulty.
During the 2016 Day of Saxony celebration, the city set a world record with over 1,000 people playing the board game Mensch ärgere Dich nicht at the same time. This quirky achievement shows the kind of community spirit that defines the place.
