MÜLHEIM-AM-RHEIN, a town of Rhinish Prussia, in the government of Cologne, and 3 miles N.E. of that town, is situated on the Rhine, which is here crossed by a suspension-bridge. It contains two churches and a synagogue. The manufactures of the place are extensive, consisting of leather, silk, cotton, candles, soap, tobacco, brandy, &c.; and there is also an active trade in corn and timber. The activity and prosperity of the town are chiefly owing to its Protestant citizens, who came hither from Cologne in the beginning of the seventeenth century. Pop. 5643.
