Geography
Beinheim lies on the A35 autoroute between Roppenheim and Seltz. It is about 50 kilometres north of Strasbourg, near the German border.
History
In 884, Beinheim belonged to the Abbey of Honau, and is mentioned as such (as "Beinenheim") in a document of Charles the Fat. As a former landgrave city with a castle, by the 15th century, Beinheim was no longer head of the Riet.[4]
In 1255, Beinheim belonged to the baron of Fleckenstein, who sold it to the margrave of Bade in 1402 or 1404. The margrave later introduced religious reform, which did not gain much of a hold.[4] In 1497 the margrave sold Beinheim to the Count Palatine. In 1557 the count sold it back to the margrave, who maintained possession until the French Revolution. The castle was demolished in 1687.[4]
Politics
Bernard Hentsch was elected mayor in 2001 and has held the position since then, re-elected most recently in 2014.[5] Beinheim has 19 municipal councillors.[5]
