Rosenthal, Hesse
Rosenthal (German pronunciation: [ˈʁoːzn̩taːl] ⓘ) is a small town in southeast Waldeck-Frankenberg district in Hesse, Germany.
Rosenthal lies in the Burgwald range 11 km southeast of Frankenberg and 18 km northeast of Marburg.
Rosenthal borders in the north on the municipality of Burgwald, in the east on the town of Gemünden (both in Waldeck-Frankenberg), in the southeast on the municipality of Wohratal, in the south on the towns of Rauschenberg and Wetter, and in the west on the municipality of Münchhausen (all in Marburg-Biedenkopf).
Besides the main town, which bears the same name as the whole, the town of Rosenthal consists of the centres of Roda and Willershausen.
Rosenthal was founded in 1327 as a Mainz town and outpost in the dispute over the Hessian fief, but nevertheless passed to the Landgraviate of Hesse in 1464.
In 1688, the town achieved dubious fame by being the scene of Hesse's last witch burnings.
In 1866, Rosenthal passed, along with the rest of the Electorate of Hesse, to Prussia.
As part of Hesse's municipal reforms in the early 1970s, the heretofore independent municipalities of Roda and Willershausen were amalgamated with Rosenthal.
