Geography

Waldbronn is located at the border of the Alb-Pfinz-Plateau in the valley of the river Alb.

History

Waldbronn was founded in 1972 as a result of a municipal restructuring, when the communities Busenbach and Reichenbach merged. A year earlier the community of Etzenrot had been merged with Reichenbach already.

The three communities are first mentioned in historic documents in 1292.

In January 1994 Waldbronn was awarded the official status of "Ort mit Heilquellen-Kurbetrieb", indicating the medicinal benefits of its hot wells.

Transport

Reichenbach is connected to the city of Karlsruhe by S 11 services operating over the Busenbach–Ittersbach railway, an electric railway that forms part of the Karlsruhe Stadtbahn.[2]

gollark: Sophonts are defined as nondeterministic in some way, right? Presumably you could, though, force them to make a particular decision by making it the only consistent one. Or does the universe just proactively not allow that kind of situation?
gollark: Vaguely relatedly, how do the self-consistency things interact with the universe's enforced free will?
gollark: The simplest self-consistent result of any form of time travel existing is that you just never use it ever.
gollark: Would it be convention to say "exactly one of the cats is sleeping" if you meant the English thing, then?
