Bergen-Enkheim
Bergen-Enkheim is a borough ("Ortsbezirk") of Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Bergen-Enkheim is a popular residential area with families and sports enthusiasts for its small-town character, excellent infrastructure, and the highest number of clubs (Vereine) in Frankfurt, many of them sports clubs. Its athletic facilities include a modern track and field complex, a tennis club, an extensive, recently modernized indoor and outdoor public swimming and sports center, and a nature preserve with small lakes and many kilometers of forested walking, running and biking paths (Enkheimer Ried). The southern side of the Berger Rücken, once covered with  vinyards, is now one of Frankfurt's premier residential districts, the Berger Hang. The district in the eastern part of Frankfurt was once formed from the independent towns of Bergen and Enkheim. It borders the districts of Seckbach in the west and Fechenheim in the south, the town of Maintal in the east and the town of Bad Vilbel in the north. Bergen and Enkheim were first mentioned as a common village in the thirteenth century. The two locations were administered together for centuries in 1936, but Bergen-Enkheim only officially became a town in 1968. In 1977 it was  incorporated into the city of Frankfurt. Geographically the territory is marked by the transition of the Main valley into the rising Wetterau. It is directly linked to the Rhine-Main area's RMV U-Bahn and bus network. Culture. Bergen-Enkheim is a district connected to literature, and the literary prize, the Stadtschreiber von Bergen, is awarded as a part of the market Berger Markt every year (Friday before the first Tuesday in September). The "Arabidopsis thaliana" race Enkheim, which is important in plant molecular biology research originates here. Sights. The old town of Bergen is an interesting site. Its  historic town hall holds the area's historical museum. The Gothic foundation of the building dates from 1300 to 1350 and the upper floor in the rural Renaissance style dates from the early sixteenth century. It also holds a tower holding a baroque lantern, added in 1704. A remnant of the old city walls frames the so-called "White Tower" ("Weiße Turm"). This was a late gothic watchtower which was created under the counts of Hanau along the town walls. Economy and infrastructure. Local businesses.
