Economy and Infrastructure

The field of Rundelshausen is in the flat valley of the Eschenbach, which is equipped with very good loess soils , which was very beneficial for agriculture. Located on the edge of the Franconian wine country , there were also 4.4 hectares (22 acres) of vineyards until 1883, but these disappeared in favor of arable land.

It used to be mainly agriculture. Today there are only a few farmers left, as the farms and lands have become too small for today's agricultural requirements as a result of the Franconian inheritance. Most employees commute to the nearby industrial city of Schweinfurt or to Würzburg , Bamberg , Bad Kissingen and Bad Neustadt .

Approx. 2 km east of the A70 at the Werneck (AS3) slip road is a 40 hectare industrial area with the Euro-Rastpark Werneck .

traffic

Rundelshausen was already on a salt road in the Middle Ages . The district road SW 29 runs through the village . The motorways 7 and 70 , which meet at the Schweinfurt / Werneck motorway junction , pass around 1 km away and can be reached via the federal highway 26a , the continuation of the A 70 and the motorway junction.

The place is connected to the cycle path network of the market Werneck.
