Thanks, Chris, for this one! I knew that there was an enclave, but I
have never been able to find it on a map.
But I never would have thought that it would be such a brilliant mess
of boundaries like this. Absolutely stunning!

When in 1485 Laudenbach was sold to Worms, they forgot to write about
the "Hubens" in the treaty. When Laudenbach became part of "Amt"
Ladenburg, the owners of the hubens declared themselves being part of
Lindenfels. 1802 Ladenburg became part of Baden and Lindenfels part
of Hessen. The division was perfect. From 1808 Oberlaudenbach
was "entsteint" (something like destoned - without bordermarkers) and
independent.

belongs to Hessen (the letters "Ober-" are inside this enclave). In
this enclave is another, that belongs to Baden-Württemberg. Also
there is a second "simple" enclave, belonging to Baden-Württemberg,
south of the first.
