Eberbach

Eberbach is a town in Baden-Württemberg that stretches along the Neckar River and sits surrounded by gentle hills. The center holds several schools and transportation links, while the older districts stand out for their medieval towers and close-packed buildings.

The town was founded in 1227 and grew from a fortified settlement into an important trading center. Over the centuries, a series of power shifts and territorial changes shaped how the place developed.

The town is shaped by half-timbered architecture, particularly in its older quarters where buildings from several centuries stand side by side. These structures help give the place its distinctive character as you walk through the streets.

Visitors can reach the town easily by regional trains and buses, which simplifies exploring the old town. Walking on foot through the narrow lanes is the best way to fully take in the medieval layout.

The annual Kuckucksmarkt festival brings people together to celebrate local crafts and regional food specialties. This gathering has remained a way for the community to express local traditions over generations.
