Hofer Mill and Historic Fountain

Highlight • Historical Site

The Hofer Mill was built in 1566. It was one of many mills in the Körsch Valley. The well in front of the mill, constructed in 1822, initially served as a hatchery for trout farming and later as a watering trough for horses.

Hollow Lane

Highlight • Trail

This ravine is unlikely to have been created by erosion caused by carts, but was probably artificially created to facilitate the descent into the valley. This is also indicated by the paving of the ravine floor.

Amor Temple, Scharnhausen

Highlight • Monument

The Temple of Cupid once belonged to an English garden in Scharnhausen. Many romantic legends surround the Temple of Cupid in the Ostfildern district of Scharnhausen. One of them is that the Duke of Württemberg, Carl Eugen, had it built in 1788 for his lover and later wife, Franziska von Hohenheim. Whether they spent time together there is unknown.

The size of the rabbits is impressive.

The sitting rabbits are
2.4m × 2.3m × 0.8m


The running rabbits are
2.2m × 3.1m × 0.6m


and all the rabbits are yellow or pink. The art installation was recently restored after having been in poor condition for the past few decades.
