Location: Guxhagen, Schwalm-Eder-Kreis, Kassel District, Regierungsbezirk Kassel, Hesse, Germany
Guxhagen is located between the two rivers Fulda and Eder at the foot of the Quiller and Söhre forest area south of Kassel.
The small town is located directly on the A7 motorway junction.
The historical roots of Guxhagen go back a long way and are linked to the founding of the Benedictine monastery in 1113. The well-known exhibition of the Breitenau memorial is located in what is now the Breitenau monastery. If you are interested, you have the opportunity to take part in a guided tour by appointment.
