The starting point for the local Christmas Market if arriving from the Esslingen Neckar Train Station on day trip from Stuttgart. Stalls here are beautifully setup with Christmas theme with charming building framing the market.

The view over the city is stunning. If you prefer, there’s also a bus that can take you up, but climbing the steps makes the experience much more special. A great spot to explore, relax, and take beautiful photo..☺️

medieval gothic church. forms the main sightseeing of the town and can be spotted from every corner.

It doesn't matter whether it's winter or summer; this place offers an outstanding view.

A lovely town. I would definitely go back there again in summer or falls to have a Chance to try the wine there.

Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady) in Esslingen am Neckar is a late Gothic hall church constructed in 1516, funded by the city’s bourgeoisie as a statement of civic autonomy. It is one of the earliest hall churches in southwest Germany, with all three naves built to equal height and a slender 72-meter tower that dominates the skyline. The richly sculpted south portal includes scenes of the Last Judgment and the life of Mary. The choir contains original 14th-century stained-glass windows, while the nave includes 20th-century glasswork.

Beautiful park. One can go for a relaxing walk here, especially to see ducks, rats, and other species.

(Translated by Google) The "Thick Tower" is still a landmark today, overlooking a large part of today's Esslingen. At the same time a part of the castle and city fortifications, with its thick walls and cannons it was an important defense point that could defend in all directions and quickly via battlements Coincidentally, the tower was open for a short time, otherwise it is apparently only accessible for private events. The interior has been heavily renovated and modernized. To the normal guest it may seem cozy Opinion is sometimes a little less, a little more. But overall a great destination for every visitor to Esslingen. (Original) Noch heute ist der ,, Dicke Turm" ein Wahrzeichen, der einen großen Teil vom heutigen Esslingen überblickt. Gleichzeitig ein Teil der Burg und Stadtbefestigung war er mit seinen dicken Mauern und Kanonen ein wichtiger Verteidigungspunkt der in alle Richtungen hin verteidigen konnte und über Wehrgänge schnell erreichbar war. Zufälliger weise war der Turm gerade für eine kurze Zeit geöffnet, sonst ist er leider anscheinen nur bei privaten Veranstaltungen zugänglich. Das Innere wurde stark renoviert und modernisiert, Für den normalen Gast mag das gemütlich vorkommen. Nach meiner Meinung ist manchmal etwas weniger etwas mehr. In allem aber ein tolles Ziel für jeden Esslingen Besucher.

I have fallen in love with Kessler sparkling wines since being in the area. So well priced and delicious. I love heading to this place in the summer and enjoying a glass of sparking wine. A must visit / try while in Stuttgart and specially if in Esslingen.

Excellent view from the old fort. Esslingen can be seen in the palm of your hand. There is also a restaurant where you can drink coffee, beer, and eat. Visiting at night is even more impressive.

(Translated by Google) The observation tower at the Katharinenlinde is a great hiking destination and offers magnificent views of the Swabian Alb and Stuttgart (with the Neckar valley and grave chapel). A donation of 50 cents is requested for the climb. Right next to it is the mountain restaurant, with good food and snacks (also available outside). (Original) Der Aussichtsturm bei der Katharinenlinde ist ein tolles Wanderziel und bietet grandiose Aussicht auf die Schwäbische Alb und auf Stuttgart (mit Neckartal und Grabkapelle). Für die Besteigung wird um eine Spende von 50 Cent gebeten. Gleich daneben befindet sich das Höhenrestaurant, mit gutem Speisen und Snackangebot (auch als Aussenverkauf).

Perfect place to be with kids. Entry price is quite justified for the place. It's not a big place but still quite interesting. Good amount and variety of animals who can be fed with popcorn. Having an aquarium is cherry on top. Restaurant is quite good and also at the moderate price. Another good thing is that dogs are allowed. So thumbs up for it.

A lot in one place. Two floors underground garage with a lot of parking spaces.. u can found everything you need in one building.. elevators, elevating stares, a lot of low prices actions. Clohts, shoes, cosmetics, pharmacy, electronic devices, kiosk... everything. Loved it

good experience here @ Merkel's. paid one price for 5 activities/therapies : swimming, thermal bath, steam bath,cold water therapy and oxygen therapy.recommend one to come here at least once a week, tun gut für das Körper!

Unexpectedly creative gallery

(Translated by Google) I ordered a bottle of each wine to try. And what can I say, I'm thrilled. Every single wine has its own character and one tastes better than the other. The wines are not the cheapest, but you can taste the craftsmanship that goes into them. Therefore every euro is worth it. And therefore the price-performance ratio is more than okay. I particularly liked the blue Zweigelt. The awards also speak for themselves. Thanks! (Original) Habe mir von jedem Wein eine Flasche zum Probieren bestellt. Und was soll ich sagen, bin begeistert. Jeder einzelne Wein hat seinen eigenen Charakter und einer schmeckt besser als der andere. Die Weine sind zwar nicht die günstigsten, aber man schmeckt die handwerkliche Kunst, die drin steckt. Daher lohnt sich auch jeder Euro. Und daher ist das Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis mehr als in Ordnung. Der blaue Zweigelt hat es mir besonders angetan. Die Auszeichnungen sprechen auch für sich. Danke!
