Pfaffen-Beerfurth

Pfaffen-Beerfurth extends along the western bank of the Gersprenz River at 195 meters above sea level in the Odenwald region of Hesse.

The settlement was first documented in 1324 as Berenforte, later known as Bernffurt hiedisseyte der Bach in 1443, before receiving its current name in 1650.

The district's coat of arms, officially approved in 1928, displays a silver dove and a six-pointed star on a blue background.

The district connects to federal highways B47 and B38 through a single bridge road that leads to neighboring Kirch-Beerfurth.

Between the Hasenbuckel hill and Reichenberg Castle lies the Ratzenbrunnen spring, which feeds a stream flowing into the Gersprenz River.
