Stadtbezirk Information & Stadtbezirk Links at HealthHaven.com

A Stadtbezirk is a form of German city district, an administrative unit within a larger city. In Germany Stadtbezirke usually only exist in a metropolis with more than 150,000 inhabitants.

For example, Wattenscheid, which was a town in its own right until 1974, is now contained within the city of Bochum in the Ruhr area of North Rhine-Westphalia.
