Opposite the Old Customs House, the Old Town Hall forms another prominent architectural feature in the heart of the old town. This building was once the economic and civic center of old Geislingen. In 1422, the merchants from Ulm built the combined market hall and town hall in the Alemannic timber-frame style, replacing the bakers' stalls and the butchers' stalls. The stone building displayed its timber framing on the first floor. Together with the Old Customs House opposite, it forms the representative center of the street market in the heart of the old town. The current facade design dates back to the Renaissance-style renovation carried out by the Geislingen Beautification Society between 1882 and 1884. The carillon on the corner tower plays in sync with the Trout Fountain. Originally, the building served more as a market hall than a town hall, as evidenced by the name "Köffhus" (market house) found in old documents. The large room on the first floor was designated as the "courtroom" for council meetings. The large central room on this floor was the drinking room of the city's dignitaries, the so-called "Stubengesellschaft" (room society). https://www.geislingen.de/de/gaeste/kultur/historischer-stadtrundgang/altes-rathaus

The "Old Building" is an imposing eight-story timber-framed structure dating back to 1445. This former granary is considered one of Geislingen's landmarks. Since 1923, it has housed the museum collection of the Geislingen Art and History Association (Kunst- und Geschichtsverein Geislingen e.V.) as the city museum. The museum in the Old Building holds the memory of the city of Geislingen and its surrounding area. It was founded 100 years ago as the "Local History Museum." https://stadtmuseum-geislingen.de/ The current collection is definitely worth seeing and well worth a visit.

A beautiful fountain that the children really like!

This is one of the most beautiful houses in Bad Überkingen.

In 1927, the Büble (little boy) was donated by Hugo Fahr, presumably to mark the 25th anniversary of the city park. The Büble (little boy) on the bowl fountain quickly became a significant part of the city park and was an integral part of it for 90 years. At the time, Hugo Fahr was managing director of the Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik (WMF) and an honorary citizen of the city of Geislingen. He placed the little boy in the city park "out of devotion to his hometown," as a GZ report from those days put it. The figure was manufactured using copper plating at the WMF Galvanoplastiken (galvanizing plant). The WMF was located across the street from the city park—very close to the location of our fountain Büble. In 2018, the old fountain Büble was accidentally destroyed during tree felling. The city administration then launched a call for donations, asking anyone who owned a replica of this figure to use as a model for a reproduction. (Source: Display board) In fact, an old model was found, allowing the ever-popular fountain to be reconstructed.

Well-known train station and beginning of the Geislinger Steige
