Weinheim and Sinsheim. It is also the area´s industrial centre.
Leimen is located on the Bergstraße (Mountain Road) and on the Bertha Benz Memorial Route.
In the context of a communal reform in the 1970s, Leimen was newly created from the villages Leimen, Gauangelloch and Sankt Ilgen. In 1981, the state government of Baden-Württemberg granted Leimen the privilege to be called "town." When Leimen´s population exceeded 20,000 in 1990, the city council applied for elevation to a Große Kreisstadt which was granted by the state government on April 1, 1992." - (en.wikipedia.org 30.01.2021)
