ETTEnheim (*)
(*) Ettenheim (Low Alemannic: Äddene) is a city in the Ortenaukreis, Baden-Württemberg, Germany.
Ettenheim was founded in the 8th century by Eddo, bishop of Strasbourg, and the Benedictine abbey of Ettenheimmünster [de] was founded at about that time. Ettenheim received town rights in the 13th century from the Prince-Bishop of Strasbourg, whose territory on the right bank of the Rhine Ettenheim would form the center of until 1803, when it was mediatized to the Grand Duchy of Baden. Karlsruhe assigned Ettenheim to the district of Mahlberg, but then in 1809 made it the seat of its own district until 1824. In 1939, Ettenheim was assigned to Landkreis Lahr [de], which was replaced by the 1973 Baden-Württemberg district reform [de] with the district of Ortenau.
The township (Stadt) of Ettenheim lies on the southern edge of the Ortenau district of Baden-Württemberg, along the former's border with the Emmendingen district. Ettenheim is physically located in the Middle Upper Rhineland Lowlands [de]. The main watercourse in the municipal area is the Ettenbach, which, at the municipality's western border, marks its lowest elevation above sea level at 165 meters (541 ft) Normalnull (NN). The highest elevation, 543 meters (1,781 ft) NN, is found in the municipality's northeast, in the buntsandstein mountains of the Central Black Forest around Lahr. In the foothills of those mountains that fall within Ettenheim's municipal area are the wetlands of the Seltenbach, which are protected as the Saure Matten nature reserve.
