Pfullendorf, Medieval municipality in Baden-Württemberg, Germany.
Pfullendorf is an urban municipality in the Sigmaringen district of Baden-Württemberg with a medieval center. The town sits at 654 meters elevation roughly 25 kilometers north of Lake Constance and features timber-framed buildings organized around a central marketplace.
Emperor Frederick II granted this settlement imperial city status in 1220, conferring autonomy and self-governance rights. This charter allowed the town to organize through guilds and develop its economic influence in the region.
Timber-framed houses with their distinctive beams and details shape the town's appearance and gather around the marketplace. Regular markets held here keep traditional trading practices visible to residents and visitors alike.
The town is accessible by public transportation with several parking options in the center for visitors. Most places in the old town are easily reached on foot during a walk through the area.
The town hosts a German Army special operations training facility that once served as an international NATO training center. This military installation has shaped local development and infrastructure for decades.
