    Hiking

    From 1586 to 1592, the Dukes of Württemberg had a three-winged Renaissance-style castle built in place of the abbot's house to the south of the cloister.
    During a siege by French troops under General Mélac in the War of the Palatinate Succession, the castle and monastery went up in flames on September 19th/29th 1692. At first, only the roofs were missing, but by 1808 the complex had increasingly lost masonry, which was used for the reconstruction of Calw, among other things.
