Tips from the Community
The marketplace of Vaihingen an der Enz is a small jewel that many overlook when passing through. The town hall and the half-timbered houses around the square partly date from the 16th century. Also check out the alleys behind it. Some of the oldest buildings in the city are located there, away from the tourist hustle and bustle.

This striking half-timbered house in Bönnigheim is the "Ratsstüble" (Rat's Inn) on the market square. It was built on the cellar vault of a previous building, dating back to at least 1458. It has a relatively small footprint and a height of 17 meters. The building has likely housed a restaurant since its construction. It is documented that it was owned by a master baker in 1685 and a master butcher in 1839. During the First World War, bakeries, butchers, and confectioneries were located here. Since 1945, it has been called the "Ratsstüble" – probably due to its proximity to the former town hall (which burned down in 1945). This is where the council members of the time met. In the 1970s, the inn was considered a trendy pub thanks to the students of the Hohenstein Institute and Schiller College. Today, you will find an inn here serving traditional Swabian cuisine.

Gravel surface, but very easy to ride on. In summer, you can also cool off in the shade of the trees.
