Rhein-Berg District, Administrative district in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany
Rhein-Berg District is an administrative region in North Rhine-Westphalia comprising eight municipalities spread across rolling hill country. Bergisch Gladbach at its center serves as the administrative hub connecting these communities together.
This district was created after World War II as part of a territorial reorganization in North Rhine-Westphalia. The administrative boundaries were drawn then to reshape the regions and simplify governance.
The eight municipalities each have their own character, visible in the markets, fairs, and celebrations that happen throughout the year. These gatherings shape how people in each town live and connect with one another.
The region is well served by public transportation connecting all municipalities with direct access to major highways and rail routes. With good connections to Cologne and other major cities, exploring the area is straightforward.
The district collaborates with regional authorities to expand cycling and walking paths across all communities. This network makes it easy to discover the countryside between towns on foot or by bicycle.
