Gummersbach is a city and municipality in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. It is the Kreisstadt of the Oberbergischer Kreis. The city has 49,734 inhabitants.
The city became known worldwide by the successes of the local handball club VfL Gummersbach, who won the Europe Cup handball for the first time in 1968, and in the period until 1988 it was many times champion of Germany and Europe.
The city has long been dominated by a large boiler factory, which went bankrupt in 1992. In 2010, a new city district will be developed in the former manufacturing site. districts
