  Bad Homburg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bad Homburg is the capital city of the Hochtaunuskreis, Hesse, Germany, on the southern slope of the Taunus, bordering among others Frankfurt and Oberursel.
The city's formal name is Bad Homburg vor der Höhe (translated as Bad Homburg in front of the height), abbreviated as Bad Homburg v.d.H. Elevation: 130 to 250 m in the city (128 to 683 m in the whole area); Position: 50° 13’ 45” N, 8° 36’ 43” E; Population: 52000.
Bad Homburg's civic coat of arms was granted in 1903 but is said to date from the 15th century on the basis of seals known from that time, although they show a saltire rather than the two adzes seen today (the saltire might be two unclear adzes).

Bad Homburg is one of Germany's most attractive spas, still basking in the grandeur left over from turn-of-the-20th-century Europe.
The name of the town was popularized by England's Edward VII when, as Prince of Wales, he visited the spa and introduced a new hat style, which he called the "homburg." The town became the gaming capital of Europe when the Blanc brothers opened the casino in 1841.
The Spa Park is a verdant, carefully landscaped oasis in the middle of an otherwise rather commercial-looking town.
