Kahl

Kahl may refer to two geographic uses in Bavaria, Germany: the Kahl river and the municipality Kahl am Main.

Kahl am Main is a municipality in the Aschaffenburg district, in the Lower Franconia region of Bavaria. It lies on the Main River in the northern foothills of the Spessart, and its name indicates its position on the Main near the Kahl. The area has medieval origins and became part of Bavaria in the 19th century during territorial reforms.

The Kahl is a small river in the Bavarian Spessart that rises there and flows toward the Main, giving its name to the town and region. It has historically supported mills and local agriculture and remains a notable geographic feature of the area.

Today, Kahl am Main is primarily a residential community with local services and small businesses. It is connected by regional roads and rail to nearby centers such as Aschaffenburg and Frankfurt, making it part of the wider Rhine-Main metropolitan region.
