The city of Bruchsal is the largest and closest city to most of the towns where members of the Baer family have lived. Today it also includes a few Stadteile: Büchenau, Heidelsheim, Helmsheim, Obergrombach and Untergrombach. Members of the Baer family are recorded as living in Bruchsal even in the early 1800s but most of the Baer family that moved to Bruchsal came in the latter part of the 19th century.
