Herrenberg, Medieval market town in Baden-Württemberg, Germany
The central marketplace of Herrenberg features half-timbered buildings surrounding a stone fountain dating from the 16th century and leads to a hilltop church.
Founded around 1200 through the merger of Reistingen and Mühlhausen villages, Herrenberg received its first documented mention as a fortress settlement in 1228.
The Collegiate Church contains 80 late medieval choir stalls and a bell museum displaying centuries-old bells that chronicle the development of German bell craftsmanship.
Located 30 kilometers south of Stuttgart, Herrenberg connects to major cities through the S1 line of Stuttgart S-Bahn and the Stuttgart-Horb railway line.
The town survived two major fires in 1466 and 1635, resulting in a complete reconstruction that created the current unified architectural layout of the old city.
