Neuhausen auf den Fildern, municipality in Germany
Neuhausen auf den Fildern is a small village in the Esslingen region, situated on fertile plains. The municipality consists of scattered houses, active farms, and wide fields crossed by small streams that flow into the Sulzbach, while wooded areas like Horb surround the landscape.
The village historically belonged to Baden and later to Wurttemberg, with roots stretching far back in time. World War II left deep marks, but the community was rebuilt and developed into a residential place near Stuttgart.
The name refers to its location on the Filder plains, once shaped by intensive farming that defined daily life here. Today active farms and fields remain part of the landscape, while local celebrations like Corpus Christi processions show how residents maintain and share their traditions together.
The place is easily reached from Stuttgart, with good roads and public bus lines that take residents and visitors to nearby towns. Basic shops meet daily needs here, while the open terrain is ideal for walks and hikes on natural paths.
Anton Walter, a famous piano maker, came from the village and created early fortepianos still valued today for their warm and clear sound. This link to music history remains a quiet feature of the place that visitors often overlook.
