Hockenheim, Racing district town in Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

Located in the Upper Rhine Valley, Hockenheim stands 20 kilometers south of Mannheim and contains extensive tobacco fields along the Baden Asparagus Route.

The settlement emerged in 769 as Ochinheim through a donation document of the Lorsch Codex, later falling under the administration of Speyer Diocese.

The tobacco cultivation museum presents agricultural implements, processing methods, and documentation about the local farming traditions that shaped the town's development.

The central railway station connects to both the Rhine railway and the Mannheim-Stuttgart high-speed line, providing direct access to major German cities.

The Hockenheimring racing circuit has hosted more than 30 Formula One German Grand Prix events since 1970, transforming this agricultural town.
