Gengenbach Old Town

Gengenbach has a great old town, many half-timbered houses and is a lively town on the Kinzig. Surrounded by vineyards, Gengenbach is a perfect place for a break.

Beautiful city center with marketplace and plenty of places to stop off.

The towers and gates invite you into the historic old town from afar and narrow alleys lead you into picturesque nooks and crannies. The "stone knight" on the market square fountain welcomes us upright. It testifies to the pride and self-confidence of the former Free Imperial City, as does the imposing 200-year-old town hall, which is transformed into the world's largest Advent calendar house in winter and, with its countless romantic half-timbered buildings, dominates the cityscape.
