Berolzheim is a district of the municipality of Ahorn in the Main-Tauber district in Baden-Württemberg .

location

Berolzheim is the largest district in terms of area in the municipality of Ahorn and is located halfway between Würzburg and Heilbronn in the flat, tree-poor landscape of building land (derived from bean land ), which is known for the Limes town of Osterburken an der Kirnau . The former village of Berolzheim is separated from the new building area that was built in the late 1960s by an extensive valley. The landscape around the cohesive built-up area is characterized by regular hills and fields, which are joined by dense coniferous forests in all directions after about one kilometer.
