Wertheim am Main

Wertheim (East Franconian: Wärde) is a town in southwestern Germany, in the state of Baden-Württemberg with a population of around 23,400.

From the early 12th century onwards, a branch of the noble family of the Reginbodons called themselves after the town.

Michael died without producing a male heir and consequently the county passed to Ludwig of Stolberg.

[citation needed] For many years Wertheim was home to Peden Barracks, a US Army installation.

The US Army left Peden Barracks in the early 1990s as part of the post Cold War reorganization of US armed forces in Germany.

These 15 communities are: Bettingen, Dertingen, Dietenhan, Dörlesberg, Grünenwört, Höhefeld, Kembach, Lindelbach, Mondfeld, Nassig, Reicholzheim, Sachsenhausen, Sonderriet, Urphar and Waldenhausen.

Due to the incorporation of surrounding communities, Wertheim reached the 20,000 population mark in 1975.

Wertheim has a medieval town center with half-timbered houses and small streets.

Other sights include the Kittsteintor with flood markings from 1595 onwards and the Blaues Haus ("Blue house").

The outlying Stadtteil of Urphar features a medieval fortified church, Jakobskirche [de].
