Baunach (DE)

Baunach is a town (4,005 inhabitants end 2015) in the Upper Franconian district of Bamberg and the seat of the administrative community (Verwaltungsgemeinschaft) of Baunach. Until administrative reform in 1972, Baunach belonged to the Lower Franconian district of Ebern.

Baunach calls itself the “Franconian Three-River Town” because it lies on the rivers Baunach, Lauter and Main (right bank). These three rivers are depicted in the town’s coat of arms, with a golden pike. In 2002, the town celebrated its 1,200-year jubilee.

It used stamps issued by the Bavaria (Bayern) State until 1920.
