Karlshafen — formally Bad Karlshafen — is a small Weser River town in Hesse-Kassel founded in 1699 by Landgrave Karl of Hesse to resettle French Huguenot refugees. The town never grew into the major inland port its founder envisioned, and by the time municipal emergency money became necessary during the Weimar-era Notgeld wave, it remained a minor administrative center. That smallness matters: Stadtnotgeld from genuinely small issuers like this one typically had short print runs and even shorter circulation lives.
Gebrüder Gotthelft in Cassel were among the busier regional printers handling Hessian Notgeld commissions during 1918–1922.
