Wasserhaus Esslingen

Highlight • Monument

The route is actually not allowed for cyclists. But when there are no pedestrians, it is great fun to master the narrow passage on old wooden planks through the water house with a lot of skill.

Waterhouse on the Hammer Canal (Esslingen)

Highlight • Monument

The water house is located on the Hammer Canal.
Great narrow passage over the Hammer Canal, which divides into the Rossneckar Canal and the Wehrneckar Canal at the former Upper Mill.

Little Venice (Esslingen on the Neckar)

Highlight • Historical Site

The view across the Rossneckar River to the houses on the Inner Bridge is called "Little Venice." At the city archives, a narrow passage leads down to the Kesselwasen, where two waterwheels are still in operation. I highly recommend strolling through the alleys here. 🤩👍🏻

Maille Park, Esslingen

Highlight • Rest Area

The small park that stretches between the two arms of the Neckar below the Inner Bridge is called Maille. You can tell a real Esslinger by the correct pronunciation of the park name - it is actually Mallje.
The park is named after the ball game palle-malle, which came to Germany from Italy in the Baroque era and is a precursor to today's croquet. This game of skill used to be played on the floating island.
