Büdingen, Kr. Wetterau, Hessen

Büdingen has a significant history related to the migration to the Volga German colonies. It served as a gathering place for many colonist families who were immigrating, particularly in 1766.

During the spring and summer of 1766, several hundred colonist marriages were conducted in St. Mary's Lutheran Church in Büdingen. Those marriages have been published in the book by Mai & Marquardt (see Sources).
