It is the northernmost town of the district [[Schwarzwald-Baar-Kreis|Schwarzwald Baar]]. Königsfeld has six boroughs (Königsfeld, Neuhausen, Erdmannsweiler, Buchenberg, Burgberg and Weiler). Founded in 1807, it is a centre of the [[Moravian Church]]. Until after the Second World War, most of the town's inhabitants continued to be Moravians and the ''Vorsteher'' (congregational business manager) of the Congregation also served as ''de facto'' Mayor of the town. After the war, great numbers of refugees from former eastern provinces of Germany settled in the town. Königsfeld is on several major bus lines, the next train stations are in [[Sankt Georgen im Schwarzwald|St. Georgen]] and [[Villingen-Schwenningen]]. Regional bus lines connect Königsfeld to these towns. Until 1981 it was served by the train station Peterzell-Königsfeld, 5 km outside Königsfeld. Königsfeld is the seat of several boarding schools and a classical Gymnasium/High School/Public School and a School for Home Economics, all operated by the Moravian Church. Humanitarian [[Albert Schweizer]] maintained a home in Königsfeld because his wife could not live in [[Lambaréné]] due to her health. His home in Königsfeld is now a museum. There is also a small museum dealing with the history of the town. |
