Neckargemünd, Riverside municipality near Heidelberg, Germany

Neckargemünd stretches along the Neckar River at the confluence with the Elsenz River, surrounded by forested hills of the Odenwald mountains.

The settlement emerged from a fishing village in 988 when Emperor Otto III granted the lands to a bishop, later gaining free status in 1286.

The old town center displays traditional German architecture with numerous half-timbered houses and cobblestone streets dating from different construction periods.

The town maintains strong transportation connections to Heidelberg and Mannheim through regular train services and well-maintained road networks.

Archaeological discoveries near Neckargemünd include remains of Homo heidelbergensis from 500,000 years ago, found in the neighboring village of Mauer.
