Palatinate language island information


Map of the region

The Palatinate language island on the Lower Rhine is an area to the west of the Lower Rhine where since the mid-18th century a Rhenish Franconian dialect has been spoken, brought into the then-Prussian territory by settlers originating from the Palatinate region. Because the Protestants did not mix with the local Catholic population for a long time, their distinct dialect has remained partly preserved.
