Esslingen Historic Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

Esslingen Old Town, Esslingen am Neckar
lots to discover, lots to tell
The romantic old town with its over 200 half-timbered houses, the wine, the culture and wonderful people - there are many reasons to visit Esslingen. Right in the heart of the Stuttgart region and yet far away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, you can unwind. Framed by the Neckar and vineyards, crossed by water canals, and crowned by a castle that wasn't one. Esslingen tells stories on every corner. It's a great place to spend time - forget about everyday life.

Little Venice (Esslingen on the Neckar)

Highlight • Historical Site

The view across the Rossneckar River to the houses on the Inner Bridge is called "Little Venice." At the city archives, a narrow passage leads down to the Kesselwasen, where two waterwheels are still in operation. I highly recommend strolling through the alleys here. 🤩👍🏻

Description
In the middle of the Inner Bridge in Esslingen is the St. Nicholas Chapel, built in 1350. The bridge chapel became a sales stand in the 16th century.
For a long time the chapel was used as a workshop for a file factory, and since 1956 it has served as a memorial for the victims of National Socialism.

Maille Park, Esslingen

Highlight • Rest Area

The small park that stretches between the two arms of the Neckar below the Inner Bridge is called Maille. You can tell a real Esslinger by the correct pronunciation of the park name - it is actually Mallje.
The park is named after the ball game palle-malle, which came to Germany from Italy in the Baroque era and is a precursor to today's croquet. This game of skill used to be played on the floating island.

Beautiful bike path along the Neckar. Watch out, ducks occasionally waddle around on the bike path!
