The North of Ludwigshafen

The north of Ludwigshafen with the districts of Pfingstweide, Edigheim, and Oppau borders the BASF site. The three districts are assigned to the Oppau area. Edigheim is considered the oldest district and has probably existed since the 5th century. It is characterized by medium to good locations, all of which are in green surroundings. Oppau is home to the BASF plant, where medium locations predominantly dominate. Pfingstweide represents the northernmost district. New building projects have created a lot of attractive living space here and increased the quality of residential locations.

Living in the South of the Rhine-Neckar Metropolis

In the south of the city are Rheingönheim and Mundenheim as well as Gartenstadt and Maudach, which directly borders the A 65 highway. Rheingönheim marks the southern border of Ludwigshafen and is located directly on the Rhine, while Mundenheim scores with its proximity to the city center and very good connections. Gartenstadt is rather middle-class with a densely built core. The district of Maudach has a tranquil, village-like suburban character, yet from here you can reach the city center quickly and easily.

The Green West

Located in the far west of Ludwigshafen is the district of Ruchheim. Here, the A 650 and A 61 highways intersect, providing good connections. Ruchheim is considered an upscale residential area that appeals to young and old alike with its green streets and attractive locations. Oggersheim is located in the center of Ludwigshafen. Good and very good residential areas here promise high quality of life, especially for families. Numerous newly created neighborhoods make the largest district of Ludwigshafen a sought-after and popular residential area. Melm-Notwende with its new housing developments and single-family homes is also considered an upscale residential area that extends around the Melm River.

Eastern Districts Towards the Neckar

The east encompasses the district of Friesenheim, the northern and southern downtown, and Ludwigshafen-Mitte. The former medieval settlement of Friesenheim offers extraordinary residential diversity with its spacious, green avenues. While the north is dominated by dense and winding development with older properties, the southern Friesenheim is dominated by real estate and residential areas of more recent origin. Those looking for an urban atmosphere with a refined ambiance and high location quality will find exactly what they're looking for in Ludwigshafen-South. Ludwigshafen-North is nowadays considered a lively, multicultural trendy district, and in Mitte, you can live centrally with good connections to the rest of the city and many affordable living spaces.
