Isenburg-Meerholz

Isenburg-Meerholz (or Ysenburg-Büdingen-Meerholz) was a County with Imperial immediacy in the south of Hesse, Germany.

It was created as a partition of Isenburg-Büdingen (or Ysenburg-Büdingen) in 1687 (Third Main-Partition) for one of the branches of an ancient German House of Isenburg.

In 2007, with the addition of Romania and Bulgaria, Meerholz (now a part of the former free town of Gelnhausen) became the European Union's new geographical centre.
