Weinheim (German: [ˈvaɪnhaɪm] (Audio file "Weinheim.ogg " not found)) is a town with about 43,000 people living there in northwest Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It is in the Rhine-Neckar Metropolitan Region, about 15 km (9 mi) north of Heidelberg and 10 km (6 mi) northeast of Mannheim. Weinheim is known as the "Zwei-Burgen-Stadt", the "town of two castles", because of the two fortresses at the edge of the Odenwald in the east.
