Buchschlag, Garden city district in Dreieich, Germany

The district of Buchschlag spans 5.28 square kilometers at an elevation of 122 meters, with a population density of 553 residents per square kilometer.

Founded in 1913, Buchschlag originated from a forest area near a barrier gate on the former Dreieich ring fortification, where a forestry office stood since 1837.

The district features numerous Art Nouveau villas designed by 14 different architects, including Wilhelm Koban, following Friedrich Pützer's garden city movement principles.

The Dreieich-Buchschlag station connects to Frankfurt via S-Bahn lines S3 and S4, plus regional trains and bus services to Frankfurt Airport.

The former waste disposal site, once the largest in Europe, has been transformed into an extensive photovoltaic facility at the western edge of Buchschlag.
