Historical City Walk

Step back in time! Guided by our city guides and their vivid storytelling, the history of Calw comes to life. You will learn about the former high nobility of Calw, the life and work of Hermann Hesse, and the city's varied architecture.

What role did "der Lange" play as part of the medieval city fortifications, and what makes the many half-timbered houses so distinctive? The public tour also includes free admission to the magnificent Palais Vischer - today's city museum, built in the grand Louis XVI style.
