    Hiking

    The view across the Rossneckar River to the houses on the Inner Bridge is called "Little Venice." At the city archives, a narrow passage leads down to the Kesselwasen, where two waterwheels are still in operation. I highly recommend strolling through the alleys here. 🤩👍🏻

    Little Venice, Esslingen am Neckar
    Crisscrossed by winding cobblestone streets and dreamy waterways, framed by the Neckar and vineyards, overlooked by the castle hill - that's Esslingen! Enjoy, let go …

    Little Venice is the name given to a romantic district in Esslingen at Kesselwasen. Here the Rossneckar, the historic Inner Bridge and old water wheels form a harmonious ensemble.
    The historic water wheels are still in operation today and are used to generate electricity. They once powered the turbines of the early industrial plants of the 19th century. At that time they were the engine for the beginning of industrialization in Württemberg.
