Bad Dürkheim, Administrative district in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany
The Bad Dürkheim district extends over 595 square kilometers of varied landscapes, including forests, vineyards, and settlements in western Rhineland-Palatinate.
The district was formed in 1969 through the combination of territories from the previous districts of Neustadt and Frankenthal during regional administrative reforms.
The eastern rim of the Palatinate Forest contains numerous settlements dating from the Medieval period, reflecting deep connections to early Holy Roman Empire.
The district connects to major neighboring areas including Kaiserslautern, Donnersbergkreis, Alzey-Worms, and maintains efficient transportation networks throughout the region.
The local dialect shares strong linguistic similarities with Pennsylvania Dutch, the language spoken by Amish communities in North America.
