May 6, 2026, Knittlingen Old Town

https://www.knittlingen.de/stadt-knittlingen/stadtgeschichte "Monday, June 2nd, I will depart. My heart expanded in all the expectations of what I will see and hear. Never have I felt so well as when, half an hour from here, I rode down the mountain – and below me lay Knittlingen…" (Friedrich Hölderlin in a letter from 1788)https://As "Württemberg's foremost bulwark and border fortress against the Palatinate" Knittlingen was first mentioned in a document in 843, then still as "Cnudelingen". In 1148, the Maulbronn monastery, completed a year earlier, acquired the rights over Knittlingen, where one of the monastery's seven granges also arose. In the following centuries, Knittlingen suffered major destruction multiple times – for example in 1360 by the Count Palatine of the Rhine, in the Thirty Years' War in 1632 by the troops of Imperial General Ernesto Montecuccoli, and in 1692 by the French. Partially devastating fires affected many historical buildings. Great influence on the development of urban life was exerted in 1490 by the idea of the Taxis dynasty (since 1650 Thurn und Taxis) to establish a horse relay post from Dutch Mechelen to Austrian Innsbruck and to open a post station in Knittlingen. From 1806 Knittlingen was part of the Oberamt Maulbronn, and in 1840 the place was officially granted town rights. From 1938 to 1972 Knittlingen belonged to the Vaihingen district, and since its dissolution to the Enzkreis in the administrative district of Karlsruhe. The history of Knittlingen's sub-districts Freudenstein (first mentioned in documents around 1251 as "Frodenstein") and Hohenklingen (first mentioned in writing in 1312) also dates back to the 13th or 14th century. The Waldensian village of Kleinvillars was founded in 1699 by reformed religious refugees from Piedmont. The incorporation of Kleinvillars into the town of Knittlingen took place on February 15, 1972, and the amalgamation of Freudenstein-Hohenklingen on August 9, 1975. Also not to be forgotten are the two Spanish partner municipalities Benaoján and Montejaque, with whom Knittlingen has been friendly connected for over 50 years, and since 2010 there has also been an official partnership. www.knittlingen.de/tourismus-freizeit/radtouren

The fountain in the upper village depicts the traditional Dürrner professions of farming and gold mining, as well as the “Dodebritscher” story.

The former fortified church is a reminder that the people of Dürrn – like their neighbors in Ölbronn, for example – were repeatedly plagued by war and destruction. Residents could bring themselves and their belongings to safety in their shelters, known as "Gaden" (forts). The oldest parts of the listed church date back to the 15th century.

On the ascending path to Dürrn there is a good view of the Bauschlotter Au nature and landscape conservation area.
