Kirchheimbolanden, District capital in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany
The municipality spreads across hills and valleys at 263 meters elevation, situated between Worms and Kaiserslautern in southwestern Rhineland-Palatinate.
The settlement originated in 774 as a parish with a church dedicated to Saint Remigius, later expanding into a fortified town under Sponheim family rule in 1368.
Musical heritage connects Kirchheimbolanden to European cultural routes through its membership in European Mozart Ways since 2012 and VIA REGIA since 2017.
The municipality serves as an administrative center of Donnersbergkreis, offering residents direct access to government services and regional transportation networks.
William, Duke of Nassau, who influenced multiple European royal bloodlines through his descendants, began his life in this Rhineland-Palatinate municipality.
