Rosenheim is a Kreis ( district) in the south of Bavaria, Germany. Neighboring districts are, clockwise from the west, Miesbach, Munich, Ebersberg, Mühldorf, and Traunstein, with the Austrian province Tirol across the southern border. The district entirely surrounds the city of Rosenheim, which is independently administered but hosts the district's administration; both the city and the district share the "RO" designation for their license plates.
The independent city of Rosenheim is located in the centre of the district of Rosenheim ( Upper Bavaria), and is also the seat of administration of this region. It is located on the west bank of the Inn at the confluence of the rivers Inn and Mangfall, in the Bavarian Alpine Foreland. It is the third largest city in Upper Bavaria with over 61,000 inhabitants and one of 23 administrative centres in Bavaria. Rosenheim is therefore the economic centre and the busiest place in the region.
Rosenheim is one of the 299 single member constituencies used for the German parliament, the Bundestag. One of forty five constituencies in Bavaria, it covers the city and county of Rosenheim. The district elects one representative under the mixed member proportional representation (MMP) system. Under the current constituency numbering system, it is designated as constituency 223.
The constituency was created for the 1949 election, the first election in West Germany after World War II. After its creation, the first election in the district was won by the Bavaria Party. However the Christian Social Union (CSU) won the constituency at the 1953 election and have held the district since then.
The representative elected in the 2013 election was Daniela Ludwig, who was first elected in 2005.
