Kronberg im Taunus, Medieval resort town in Hochtaunus, Germany.

Kronberg im Taunus sits at an elevation of 251 meters in the Taunus mountains, featuring three distinct districts: Kronberg, Oberhöchstadt, and Schönberg.

The Knights of Askenburne constructed Kronberg Castle around 1220, establishing a stronghold that served as the foundation for the settlement's growth.

The Kronberg Painters' Colony emerged during the 19th century when numerous artists established their summer residences in this mountain setting.

The S4 train line connects Kronberg directly to Frankfurt, while local buses provide transportation between the town's three districts and surrounding areas.

The mineral water spring contributes to Kronberg's status as a certified health resort, continuing a tradition that began in 1330.
