Hochtaunuskreis

The Hochtaunuskreis, located in the heart of the Frankfurt/Rhein-Main metropolitan region, offers a unique combination of scenic beauty, economic strength, and cultural wealth.

The Hochtaunuskreis is characterized by the idyllic low mountain landscape of the Taunus, which alternates between partly rural structures and densely populated areas. This mix of natural beauty and urban proximity makes the Hochtaunuskreis an attractive place to live and work.

The towns and municipalities of the Hochtaunuskreis are rich in historical and cultural heritage. From the cast-iron fountains in Usinger Land to the archaeological sites in Hintertaunus, the cultural wealth shapes the character of the district. Initiatives such as the Saalburg Prize, which promotes the research and preservation of local history, underline this commitment[1][2].

The Hochtaunuskreis is part of an economically strong region and benefits from its central location in the Frankfurt/Rhein-Main metropolitan area. The Hochtaunus Transport Association (VHT) continuously works on optimizing local public transport to ensure efficient and environmentally friendly mobility. Current projects, such as the development of the new local transport plan, emphasize the commitment to constant improvement[2].

The Hochtaunuskreis actively advocates for sustainability and the protection of its citizens. Measures to ensure adequate drinking water supply in case of disasters and the redefinition of the buffer zone against African swine fever demonstrate the commitment to public health and safety. Additionally, citizen participation in the planning and implementation of projects, such as the new local transport plan, is encouraged to ensure comprehensive and inclusive development[2].

The mission of the Hochtaunuskreis is to provide a high quality of life for its citizens by maintaining the balance between economic strength, cultural wealth, and natural beauty. Values such as sustainability, citizen participation, and the protection of cultural and historical heritage are at the forefront of the district's activities and decisions.

Thus, the Hochtaunuskreis is a vibrant example of a region that harmonizes tradition and modernity, nature and economy, and continuously strives for the future and well-being of its citizens.
