Built around an early settlement on the western fringe of the Odenwald, Nussloch grew into a municipality in Baden-Württemberg’s Rhein-Neckar district. It lies south of Heidelberg between the wooded Odenwald hills and the Upper Rhine Plain, within one of southwest Germany’s most densely settled areas. Nussloch appears in records of Lorsch Abbey from the eighth century. Limestone extraction and cement production have also shaped its more recent identity, with the local quarry marking an industrial chapter alongside farmland and vineyards near the plain.
