History

Neubulach was probably founded in the late 13th century by the Count of Hohenberg, who possessed the bergregal over local silver mining. The earliest document to refer to Neubulach comes from 1300, and it refers to Neubulach as a town (Stadt).[2]

Geography

The township (Stadt) of Neubulach is located at the center of the district of Calw, in Baden-Württemberg, one of the 16 States of the Federal Republic of Germany. Neubulach's municipal area stretches over the plateau of the Enz and Nagold river valleys, between those of the Teinach to the north and the Zingelbach to the south. Elevation above sea level in the municipal area ranges from a high of 661 meters (2,169 ft) Normalnull (NN) to a low of 342 meters (1,122 ft) NN.[2]

Politics

Neubulach has five boroughs (Ortsteil) – Altbulach, Liebelsberg, Martinsmoos, Neubulach, and Oberhaugstett – and eight villages: Elektrizitätswerk, Kohlerstal, Lautenbachhof, Lochsägmühle, Marmorwerk, Seitzental, Talmühle, and Teinachtal.[2]

Coat of arms

Neubulach's municipal coat of arms an eagle, in black, with red feet and beak and wearing a red crown, upon a field of yellow. Over the eagle's chest is a small blazon with a white field with crossed hammer and pick, both red. The crowned eagle is a motif that has been associated with Neubulach since its foundation, first appearing in the 1300 document and then again in 1535. This was the coat of arms of Neubulach until 1975, when the blazon upon the eagle's chest was added to reference the town's mining history. This coat of arms was awarded to Neubulach along with a municipal flag by the Calw district office on 19 November 1976.[2]

Transportation

Neubulach is connected to Germany's network of roadways by Bundesstraße 463 and to its system of railways by the Nagold Valley Railway. Local public transportation is provided by the Verkehrsgesellschaft Bäderkreis Calw.[2]

gollark: What do Linux users do to change a lightbulb?First, a user creates a bug report, only for it to be closed with "could not reproduce" as the developers got to it in the day. Eventually, some nights later, someone realizes that it is actually a problem, and decides to start work on a fix, soliciting the help of other people.Debates soon break out on the architecture of the new lightbulb - should they replace it with an incandescent bulb (since the bulb which broke was one of those), try and upgrade it to a halogen or LED bulb, which are technically superior if more complex. or go to a simpler and perhaps more reliable solution such as a fire?While an LED bulb is decided on, they eventually, after yet more debate, deem off-the-shelf bulbs unsuitable, and decide to make their own using commercially available LED modules. However, some of the group working on this are unhappy with this, and splinter off, trying to set up their own open semiconductor production operation to produce the LEDs.Despite delays introduced by feature creep, as it was decided halfway through to also add RGB capability and wireless control, the main group still manages to produce an early alpha, and tests it as a replacement for the original bulb. Unfortunately it stops working after a few days of use, and debugging of the system suggests that the problem is because of their power supply - the bulb needs complex, expensive, and somewhat easily damaged circuitry to convert the mains AC power into DC suitable for the LEDs, and they got that bit a bit wrong.So they decide to launch their own power grid and lighting fixture standard, which is, although incompatible with every other device, technically superior, and integrates high-speed networking so they can improve the control hardware. Having completely retrofitted the house the original lightbulb failed in and put all their designs and code up on GitHub, they deem the project a success, and after only a year!
