Donaueschingen is a German town in the Black Forest in the southwest of the federal state of Baden-Württemberg in the Schwarzwald-Baar ''Kreis''. It stands near the confluence of the two sources of the river Danube (in (ドイツ語:Donau);〔:de:Donau〕 the town's name is an eponym). Donaueschingen stands in a basin within low mountainous terrain. It is located about south of Villingen-Schwenningen, west of Tuttlingen, and about north of the Swiss town of Schaffhausen. In 2003, the population was 21,300 making it the second largest town in the district (''Kreis'') of Schwarzwald-Baar. The location of the town is favourable for its role as a regional rail hub. == Geography == Donaueschingen lies in the Baar basin in the southern Black Forest at the confluence of the Brigach and Breg rivers— the two source tributaries of the Danube— from which the town gets its name. This is today considered the true source of the Danube. An enclosed karst spring on the castle grounds, the source of the "Donaubach", is known as the source of the Danube. The municipal area extends continuously from the granite and gneiss of the Black Forest through the Triassic formations of the Schwarzwald-Baar talus to the Swabian Alb, and exhibits all strata of the southern German cuesta country. The heights decrease from in the Black Forest to about on the Baar plateau increase to above the mark again at the Swabian Alb. A model of the extraordinary geological situation of the city and its surrounding region is visible from the park opposite the train station. The town is close to Lake Titisee and less than an hour's drive from Switzerland and France. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Donaueschingen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
