For our large hiking group, it was a welcome highlight to turn the elevator embedded in the tree trunk upwards.
And lo and behold, the Fürstenberg beer appeared at the bottom and everyone was happy. There is a box on the side for voluntary donations, which everyone was happy to take advantage of (a matter of honor).

Schiltach Historic Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

The heart of the city of Schiltach is the market square in the old town. That was the case before, because this is where the important connecting routes through the Black Forest from the Strasbourg area and towards Rottweil come together. Schiltach was the last stop for those passing through before climbing into the Swabian region. The old town has been a listed building since 1971.

All information about the city and its sights can be found in the tourist information in the town hall.
