Karben, Municipality in Wetteraukreis, Germany
The town of Karben spreads across 43.94 square kilometers of land, incorporating six distinct districts at an elevation of 110 meters above sea level.
The establishment of Karben in 1970 resulted from the unification of several villages, including Klein-Karben, Gross-Karben, Okarben, Kloppenheim, Rendel, Burg-Gräfenrode, and Petterweil.
The area preserves multiple Baroque churches in its districts of Okarben, Burg-Graefenrode, and Rendel, representing the religious heritage of the region.
Two railway stations, Groß Karben and Okarben, connect the town through line S6 of the Rhine-Main S-Bahn, while the A661 autobahn provides road access.
The district of Okarben contains remains of a Roman military castellum that once formed part of the Roman imperial border defense network.
