Selb

Selb (German pronunciation: [zɛlp] ) is a town in the district of Wunsiedel, in Upper Franconia, Bavaria, Germany. It is situated in the Fichtel Mountains, on the border with the Czech Republic, 20 km northwest of Cheb and 23 km southeast of Hof.

Selb is well known for its porcelain manufacture, and is the home of the Rosenthal factory, founded in 1879 by Philipp Rosenthal as a family business. In the 1960s the town was the location for an unrealized town development plan prepared by Walter Gropius shortly before his death.

The "Selber Wiesenfest", a traditional fair with thousands of visitors per day, always takes place on the "Goldberg" on the second weekend of July.
