In the idyll of the "artist and artist town" one is surrounded by many half-timbered houses. Schwalenberg was an artists' colony in the 1920s. Perhaps not as famous as Worpswede (near Bremen) and not as rich in history as the southern Breton village of Pont-Aven.

I wouldn't have expected that. Great half-timbered buildings.
