Übach-Palenberg, Urban municipality in Heinsberg district, Germany

Located near the Dutch border, Übach-Palenberg stretches across 26 square kilometers along the Wurm River, encompassing residential areas and agricultural landscapes.

The settlement dates back to 867 when Palenberg was first documented, while Übach appeared in records in 1172, leading to their merger and town status in 1967.

The town maintains active partnerships with Rosny-sous-Bois in France and Landgraaf in Netherlands, fostering regular exchanges between residents of these communities.

Visitors can access the municipal services at Rathausplatz 4, where the administration handles local affairs for a population of 24,354 residents.

The Zweibrüggen Castle stands among green meadows near the Wurm River, with tall oaks and lindens surrounding its white-painted structure since the 14th century.
