Sightseeing

Preserve the Old Construct the New

This is the guiding principle behind every renovation that has come to pass in the last few decades. With this idea in mind, the city is such that a charming contrast emerges as one goes shopping or simply wanders through the streets.

The unmistakable skyline- a powerful ensemble of Fachwerk that follows the Kocher River- is reason enough to want to discover Schwäbisch Hall. Visitors can best experience the unique atmosphere of the former imperial city by visiting the wonderful Market Square. Architectural styles spanning time, from roman-gothic St. Michael Church to the barock City Hall, can be observed and admired from this location.

One of the most beautiful historical Old Towns in southern Germany invites you to come and stay. The former Salt City offers an intimate view of the past. Numerous towers, a partially preserved city wall, wooden bridges, a variety of stairways and many nearly unchanged backstreets dating from the middle ages all give Schwäbisch Hall an atmosphere that few cities possess.
