Hessen
Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
The Weser River is formed in the city of Münden, Germany, through the confluence of two headstreams: the Fulda River and the Werra River.123
The Fulda flows northward through the state of Hessen, while the Werra flows northward from the Thuringian Forest to meet it at this location. Upon their union at Münden, the two rivers combine to create the Weser, which then continues its course northward toward the North Sea.1432
