Location: Homburg 🌎

Bad Homburg vor der Höhe (pronounced [baːt ˈhɔmbʊʁk] ) is the district town of the Hochtaunuskreis, Hesse, on the southern slope of the Taunus mountains. Bad Homburg is part of the Frankfurt Rhein-Main urban area. The town’s official name is Bad Homburg v.d.Höhe, which distinguishes it from other places named Homburg. The town has become best known for its mineral springs and spa (hence the prefix Bad, meaning “bath”), and for its casino. As of 2021 Bad Homburg was one of the wealthiest towns in Germany (while the Hochtaunuskreis itself and the Landkreis Starnberg in Bavaria regularly vie for the title of the wealthiest district in Germany). As of 2004 the town used the marketing slogan Champagnerluft und Tradition (Champagne air and tradition).
