Weil Der Stadt
Weil der Stadt is a town of about 19,000 inhabitants in the Stuttgart Region of the German state of Baden-Württemberg. It is about west of Stuttgart city centre, in the valley of the River Würm, and is often called the "Gate to the Black Forest". Name The name Weil derives from the Latin word ''villa'', an estate or manor. The suffix ''die Stadt'' (the town) was added to distinguish Weil from various nearby villages of the same name, such as Weil im Dorf and Weil im Schönbuch. The modern name is unusual in that it contains the dative article ''der'' rather than the nominative article ''die''. This quirk arose because place names typically come after prepositions that govern the dative case in German, such as ''in'' or ''aus''. The Roman origins of the town are immortalized in its coat of arms, which features the motto SPQR. History The village of ''Wile'' was first mentioned in 1075, and described as the property of the famous abbey of Hirsau. Weil der Stadt became a Free ...
