Emmendingen occupies the transition between the Upper Rhine Plain and the western foothills of the Black Forest in Baden-Württemberg. The River Elz runs through the town, linking its compact centre with the wider Breisgau landscape north of Freiburg im Breisgau. Near the district of Windenreute stand the ruins of Hochburg, a major former fortress whose surviving walls recall the region’s early-modern past. Emmendingen’s Marktplatz hosts a regular market, bringing produce from the surrounding countryside into the centre. The town is well placed for following the Elz valley or continuing into the Black Forest. Move on to other webcams in Baden-Württemberg to compare landscapes and settings around the Elz and Breisgau.
