Freudenstadt Market Square

Highlight • Monument

A kind of cloister surrounds the market place in Freudenstadt. The tour under the pillars and along the shop windows lets you experience the marketplace from different perspectives. Details emerge - small boutiques, the smell of bread from several bakeries, hidden fountains and sculptures. The market square in Freudenstadt is the largest enclosed market square in Germany and measures 219 x 216 metres. It was built in 1599 according to master builder Heinrich Schickhardt's plans in the form of a mill board. Today the market square is divided into the upper market square, the lower market square and the post office.

Freudenstadt Town Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The church doesn't just stand in a corner of the market square. She is a corner! :)

Kniebis Pass (942 m)

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Many paths lead to Kiniebis, the highest "district" of Freudenstadt. For example, via the asphalted Salzleckerweg, or from Mitteltal via the Ellbachstraße, which is closed to motorized traffic. The road up from Bad Rippoldsau is also nice to ride on a racing bike. And if the visibility is good, you will even be rewarded with a view of the Swiss Alps, which are almost 200 km away (as the crow flies). In short: an important traffic junction for racing bike traffic in the northern Black Forest.

Salzleckerweg (Kniebis–Freudenstadt)

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A pleasant and relaxing drive. Without cars and without car noise.

Krumme Buche Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

At a time when cattle still grazed up here (the name Salzleckerweg reminds us of this, the current forest only grew again afterwards), there must have been a weather-beaten and bent beech tree here, which gave the place its name. Today, there is a newly built hut here, which invites you to take a rest and offers shelter from rain showers.
