Main-Spessart, Rural district in Lower Franconia, Germany.
The Main-Spessart district extends across 1,321 square kilometers of varied terrain, including forests, hills, and valleys along the Main River.
The district formed in 1972 through the consolidation of four previous administrative regions: Gemünden, Karlstadt, Lohr, and Marktheidenfeld.
Each of the 40 municipalities within Main-Spessart maintains its own festivals and gatherings, presenting regional Bavarian traditions throughout the year.
The district capital of Karlstadt am Main houses administrative offices, while larger towns like Lohr and Marktheidenfeld provide commercial services.
The district contains extensive protected forest areas, including Forst Aura and Frammersbacher Forst, which cover substantial portions of non-urban territory.
