Oberwolfach

Oberwolfach combines the seclusion of a Black Forest valley with an international scholarly presence in a way that reflects its position along the Wolfach River. The dispersed municipality lies in Baden-Württemberg’s Ortenau district, where wooded slopes and farms follow the narrow valley before the Wolfach joins the Kinzig in the nearby town of Wolfach. Its defining institution is the Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, founded in 1944 and internationally known for small, intensive research workshops. Individual hamlets and farmsteads, rather than a dense centre, give the settlement a distinctly rural Black Forest character.
