Waghäusel, Greater district town in Rhine valley, Baden-Württemberg, Germany
Waghäusel encompasses three distinct townships: Kirrlach, core town, and Wiesental, spanning across 42.84 square kilometers in the Rhine valley landscape.
The settlement emerged from a 13th-century monastery, gaining prominence when Emperor Heinrich III granted the Speyer church control over Bruchsal and Lußhardtwald in 1056.
The Pilgrimage Church of Mother with Kind Heart and the Baroque castle Eremitage reflect the religious and architectural traditions of the region.
The town connects to major transportation routes through the A5 highway Kronau exit and the B36 federal road, serving all three municipal districts.
The municipality houses the headquarters of dm-drogerie markt and maintains international partnerships with towns in Wales, Austria, and Hungary.
