Roth, District capital in Middle Franconia, Bavaria, Germany.

The town of Roth extends across 96 square kilometers of Bavarian landscape, featuring the Renaissance-style Ratibor Castle and Protestant church with Gothic elements.

The settlement, first documented in 1060, gained significance when Huguenot refugees established wire-making industries after receiving asylum within its protective walls.

The Protestant Church of Roth, constructed between 1511 and 1513, displays Late Gothic architecture with a Romanesque tower and Neo-Gothic additions from 1878.

Roth maintains connections with international partners through twin town relationships in Czech Republic, Poland, China, and Great Britain for cultural exchanges.

The district headquarters hosts the annual Datev Challenge Roth triathlon race and a Jazz & Blues festival, drawing participants from numerous countries.
