Where is the Kannenbäckerland?

The Kannenbäckerland is located in Rhineland-Palatinate, in the west of Germany. It covers an area of about 170 square kilometres and includes the towns and municipalities of Hillscheid, Höhr-Grenzhausen and Ransbach-Baumbach. The region is located between the cities of Koblenz in the north and Montabaur in the south and is part of the Westerwald. The proximity to the clay deposits in the surrounding area was an important factor in the development of the pottery tradition in Kannenbäckerland.
