The Alb River and Ettlingen Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

Old, historic, well-kept city worth seeing with many highlights. After exploring the city, be sure to stop by the Vogelbräu. It's worth it!

The view is always beautiful and in every season. Only a little further on is the Swiss head hut, from there you have a great view and is well protected against the often cool wind.

Schweizerkopf Hut Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

A magnificent vantage point overlooking the Gaistal Valley and the Baden-Baden Mountains all the way to the Rhine plain. From the Schweizerkopf, on a clear day, breathtaking views of the Vosges Mountains and sometimes even across the Saverne Depression to Lorraine are offered. To the north, the view extends to the Imperial Cathedral of Speyer, and to the east, the Swabian Forest can be seen.

View from Hahnenfalzhütte

Highlight • Viewpoint

Sometimes the Hahnenfalzhütte is run by the Bad Herrenalb ski guild on weekends and serves cool drinks. In winter it is cozy inside with a tiled stove.

Old town around Ettlingen Castle

Highlight • Historical Site

Ettlingen Castle is a baroque castle in the center of the Baden-Württemberg town of Ettlingen.
Today's castle had two, possibly three, previous buildings. After the Baden Margrave Hermann V was enfeoffed by Emperor Friedrich II with the town of Ettlingen, which was founded by the Hohenstaufens, his son Margrave Rudolf I of Baden built a castle complex in the middle of the 13th century - possibly on the remains of a previous Hohenstaufen building; However, a previous building has not yet been proven. The lower floors of the keep in the castle courtyard, which are still preserved today, date from this time.

A magnificent Renaissance castle followed in the 16th century. Two round corner towers were added to the south wing, and the keep was given a half-timbered upper floor. The three-wing Renaissance complex around the old keep, completed in 1600, was destroyed along with the entire city by French troops in the War of the Palatinate Succession in 1689.
