Hammersbach is a municipality in the district of Main-Kinzig-Kreis, in Hesse, Germany.
Location
[edit]Hammersbach is located near Frankfurt am Main. Since 2007 Hammersbach has an official connection to the motorway A45 that has been planned for a long time. Prior to that, it was necessary to use the Raststätte Langen-Bergheim to get access the motorway.
Constituent communities
[edit]It consists of two villages: Marköbel and Langen-Bergheim. Only Marköbel once belonged to the Roman Empire. Parts of the Limes were found there recently.
Culture and sightseeing
[edit]Hammersbach has many beautiful old houses in the town center. The elementary school (Astrid-Lindgren-Schule) of Hammersbach can be seen easily from the fields around the village, because of the cone-shaped roof.
