Old Town of Schwäbisch Hall

Highlight • Settlement

Schwäbisch Hall is a very well-preserved town on the Kocher River with countless half-timbered houses.

Translated by Google •

Tip by

17.2 km

The heart of Schwäbisch Hall is the spacious market square with the grand open staircase leading up to St. Michael's Church. Stand at the top and look out over the half-timbered roofs. The cityscape here has an aura that testifies to a long history as an important salt-producing town. Early in the morning or in the evening, when the light falls at an angle, it's all in a class of its own again.

Grand Staircase at St. Michael's Church, Schwäbisch Hall

Highlight • Religious Site

The Protestant parish church of St. Michael is the main church of the entire parish of Schwäbisch Hall. As the place of work of Johannes Brenz, it was the starting point of the Reformation in the imperial city's territory after 1523. The careful introduction of the Reformation in Hall also preserved valuable furnishings from the pre-Reformation period in St. Michael.

St. Michael is one of the most important buildings in Schwäbisch Hall. Since October 2013, the church has been awarded the European Heritage Label (as part of the network of 20 Reformation sites in Germany).[1] Today, in addition to ecclesiastical purposes, it also serves as a concert hall

View of the Old Mill on the Kocher River in Untermünkheim.

Highlight • Viewpoint

There are numerous bridges over the Kocher River. This one, however, truly deserves special attention because of the beautiful view of the mill.

August 28, 2024,Von Schwäbisch Hall nach Künzelsau

A dream tour along the Kocher, a highlight in terms of scenery and exemplary in terms of the condition of the path. The way back from Künzelsau initially led quite steeply uphill via a diversion, then followed a beautiful route along a former railway line, but mostly in full sunlight. Unfortunately, we then followed the signposted route at Kupferzell and …

Got up early to drive before the intense midday heat. The gradients to Schwäbisch Hall were mainly in the first third with gradients of up to 14%. Even with turbo power support you start to sweat.
The return trip was then mostly on flat, slightly hilly bike paths along the Kocher and also through "cooling" forest passages.
And at the …

Let's go on the Kocher-Jagst cycle path. Great river landscape along the way. Since we used the inclined elevator, you have to subtract 150 vertical meters 😉. The way back via the "schiefe Ebene" (crooked plane) is not quite as spectacular.

The second stage goes almost entirely through nature along the Kocher on very well-developed cycle paths... fantastically beautiful

Today the stage was a little shorter, but a highlight in terms of landscape. You should take your time in Schwäbisch Hall. This city offers an incredible amount of small streets, architecture and flair.
On the way you will pass beautiful old towns that are also great to visit. Unfortunately, you can't do everything in one stage.

5th stage of the Kocher-Jagst cycle path from Schwäbisch Hall to Forchtenberg. Length 45 km, easy, well-developed and very well signposted route. Mostly slightly sloping along the Kocher River with only short climbs. Highly recommended!

How glad I was that we only had a short chill tour today with temperatures above 30 degrees 🥵
Of course we used the Kneipp facility with wonderfully cold water right away 😊
There is also a long break with ice cream 🍦 and non-alcoholic yeast 🍺. And of course countless short drinking breaks💦
Cyclists we met yesterday told us …
