Mußbach an der Weinstraße

Mußbach, in the local dialect Muschbach, was instituted as a city district of Neustadt an der Weinstraße in 1969 by the Rhineland-Palatinate regional reforms. In 1935 it received the oeconym 'on the Weinstraße' due to its wine-growing status.[1] Since its institution the number of residents has grown to around 4000, making it the third most populous district of Neustadt.[2] First mention of the locality as Muosbach is found in the inventories of the Abbey of Fulda from around 780.[3]
