Endingen am Kaiserstuhl

Endingen (Low Alemannic: Ändinge am Kaiserstuehl) is a small German town located in southwest Germany, at the border with France.

The town of Endingen with the winegrowing villages Amoltern, Kiechlinsbergen and Königschaffhausen is located in the north of the Kaiserstuhl.

The highest point of the community is lying in the south of the city core, the Katharinenberg, on top of which stands a chapel.

Neighboring communities are (clockwise from the west): Sasbach, Wyhl, Forchheim, Riegel, Bahlingen, Vogtsburg.

At the same time, these form localities within the meaning of the Baden-Württemberg municipal code with their own town councils and mayors.

For a short time in the 15th century, Endingen held the status of an Imperial City (Reichsstadt) of the Holy Roman Empire.

The farmers planted vegetables and fruits and also brewed Venezuela's first beer; they built their houses in half-timbered style.

In addition, there is the Albert Schweitzer-Förderschule, which cares for pupils with learning difficulties and whose education has been extended since the year 2005 to full-time school.

Since 1970, Endingen is twinned with the Alsatian town of Erstein in France, only about 30 kilometers down on the other side of the Rhine.

The municipality of Colonia Tovar in Venezuela, which was partly co-founded by emigrants from Endingen, also maintains a twinning.
