The historic old town with over 200 listed, half-timbered houses and the Hermann Hesse Museum are worth a trip. A nighttime city tour with the night watchman is highly recommended.

Calw's old town enchants with its colorful alleys, half-timbered houses, bridges, and history. Its most famous son was Hermann Hesse, whose footsteps can be found everywhere. The Nagold River flows through the town, adding the icing on the cake.

"Calw has a small old town worth seeing, which was largely spared from the last war. The town's market square and the Nikolaus Bridge are visited by many guests."
The beautiful old town is worth it, restaurants and shops to rest and relax. Definitely worth it via the market square to the ballet school.
