キルヒハイムアムネッカーの洞窟・トップ20

This striking half-timbered house in Bönnigheim is the "Ratsstüble" (Rat's Inn) on the market square. It was built on the cellar vault of a previous building, dating back to at least 1458. It has a relatively small footprint and a height of 17 meters. The building has likely housed a restaurant since its construction. It is documented that it was owned by a master baker in 1685 and a master butcher in 1839. During the First World War, bakeries, butchers, and confectioneries were located here. Since 1945, it has been called the "Ratsstüble" – probably due to its proximity to the former town hall (which burned down in 1945). This is where the council members of the time met. In the 1970s, the inn was considered a trendy pub thanks to the students of the Hohenstein Institute and Schiller College. Today, you will find an inn here serving traditional Swabian cuisine.

You have to decide whether you want to drive quickly or enjoy the view

The picture could be of me. That's how I saw it on my tour when I came by...😃

The Grafenburg in Lauffen am Neckar is a residential castle from the early 11th century. It is located on an island in the Neckar and was built by the Counts of Lauffen. The Grafenburg now serves as Lauffen's town hall and is the only island castle on the Neckar. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grafenburg_(Lauffen_am_Neckar)

The cycle path along the Enz and the landscape are very beautiful. However, I did not find the view of the castle ruins from the bike path that spectacular.

You don't necessarily have to drive up

Great view from the ruins.

From Untermberg to the ruins you need a very, very good level of fitness, even with the eBike I need the lowest gear. Or you drive via Bissingen, Bietigheim, after the quarry left up towards Sachsenheim, on a super developed and wide path - detour about 7km. From the ruins you have a wonderful view of Bietigheim-Bissingen, Riexingen, Tamm, etc.
