Darmstadt is a city in the state of Hesse in Germany,
located in the southern part of the Rhine-Main-Area.
Darmstadt holds the official title "City of Science" as
it is a major centre of scientific institutions, universities,
and high-technology companies. Darmstadt was formerly
the capital of a sovereign country, the Grand Duchy of
Hesse and its successor, the People's State of Hesse, a
federal state of Germany. As the capital of an increasingly      Wissenschafts- und Kongresszentrum
