Raubach: Rothenberg
Rothenberg has served as a rural settlement in the Odenwald since the Middle Ages. This small locality near Raubach lies in the wooded uplands of southern Hesse, where narrow valleys and cultivated clearings break up the forest. Rothenberg is now part of the town of Oberzent, created in 2018 through the merger of four Odenwald municipalities. The surrounding terrain belongs to the Odenwald, a low mountain range extending across Hesse, Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg. Raubacher Höhe reflects the area’s dispersed pattern of farms, houses and lanes rather than an urban centre. Wooded slopes and open grassland give this part of the region its settled agricultural character.
