Aschaff
The Aschaff (in its uppermost course: ''Kleinaschaff'') is a river in the northern Spessart in Bavaria, Germany. It is a right tributary of the Main and is long. It begins at the Aschaffquelle near Waldaschaff. Loosely translated the name Aschaff means "ash water". The largest tributary is the Laufach. The river flows mostly parallel to the Bundesautobahn 3 (Motorway). For the construction of the noise barrier there, the river bed was moved and straightened. Now the Aschaff flows in the city of Aschaffenburg. It flows through the districts Damm and Strietwald. In Mainaschaff near the city limits of Aschaffenburg the Aschaff empties into the Main.

Aschaffenburg
Aschaffenburg (; South Franconian German, South Franconian: ''Aschebersch'') is a town in northwest Bavaria, Germany. The town of Aschaffenburg is not part of the Aschaffenburg (district), district of Aschaffenburg, but is its administrative seat. Aschaffenburg belonged to the Archbishopric of Mainz for more than 800 years. The town is located at the westernmost border of Lower Franconia and separated from the central and eastern part of the ''Regierungsbezirk'' (administrative region) by the Spessart hills, whereas it opens towards the Frankfurt/Rhine-Main, Rhine-Main plain in the west and north-west. Therefore, the inhabitants speak neither Bavarian language, Bavarian nor East Franconian German, East Franconian but rather a local version of Rhine Franconian. Geography Location The town is located on both sides of the Main (river), Main in north-west Bavaria, bordering to Hesse. On a federal scale it is part of central Germany, just southeast of Frankfurt am Main. In the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Mainaschaff
Mainaschaff is a community in the Aschaffenburg district in the ''Regierungsbezirk'' of Lower Franconia (''Unterfranken'') in Bavaria, Germany. It has a population of around 9,000 (2020). Geography Location The community lies near the boundary with Hesse, to the west just outside Aschaffenburg. It is located on the Main’s right bank, and on the small river Aschaff, which empties here into the Main. This confluence gave the community its name. History In 1184, Mainaschaff had its first documentary mention as a holding in Pope Lucius III’s privilege for the Kollegiatsstift at Aschaffenburg. In the early 12th century, the small village, which was made up mainly of farms, belonged to the ''Stift'' of St. Peter and Alexander in Aschaffenburg. The inhabitants, who made their living mostly by growing fruit and fishing, had to pay ongoing tribute to the ''Stift'', and also perform compulsory labour for it. Only in 1872 did Mainaschaff become a self-administering community. Gov ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Bundesautobahn 3
is an autobahn in Germany running from the Germany-Netherlands border near Wesel in the northwest to the Germany-Austria border near Passau. Major cities along its total length of 778 km (483 mi) include Oberhausen, Duisburg, Düsseldorf, Leverkusen, Cologne, Wiesbaden, Frankfurt, Würzburg, Nuremberg and Regensburg. The A 3 is a major connection between the Rhine-Ruhr area and southern Germany, resulting in heavy traffic.

The A3 passes by the Frankfurt Airport. Overview The A 3 begins at the border crossing Elten in North Rhine-Westphalia as a four-lane continuation of the Dutch A 12.

Aschaffenburg (district)
Aschaffenburg (Low Franconian: ''Ascheberg'') is a ''Landkreis'' (district) in Bavaria, Germany. It is bounded by (from the west and clockwise) the districts of Darmstadt-Dieburg, Offenbach, Main-Kinzig (all in the state of Hesse), the districts Main-Spessart and Miltenberg, and the town of Aschaffenburg. History The Aschaffenburg history goes back to as far as the year 957. Initially, being a Roman settlement, it came under the authority of the electors of Mainz in 982 and was chartered in 1173. Remains of Roman settlements were found on the river Main. There was a Roman military camp in what is today the municipality of Stockstadt am Main. After the Roman retreat the region became subject to Alemanni and Franks before eventually being a part of the Electorate of Mainz. While the banks of the Main were populated all these centuries, the hills of the Spessart were virtually unsettled until the 13th century. The districts of Aschaffenburg and Alzenau were established in 186 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
