Schorndorf, Historical municipality in Rems Valley, Germany

Located 26 kilometers east of Stuttgart, Schorndorf extends across 56 square kilometers with medieval structures and modern residential districts throughout the town.

The town experienced significant changes during the 16th century when numerous Anabaptist residents faced trials and were forced to leave their properties behind.

The birthplace of engineer Gottlieb Daimler houses a museum dedicated to his contributions to automotive engineering and internal combustion engine development.

The central train station functions as the terminus for the S2 line of Stuttgart's S-Bahn, connecting residents to the regional capital in regular intervals.

In 1558, multiple families from Schorndorf departed to Moravia, abandoning properties valued at over 6,800 guilders due to religious persecution.
