Gernsbach

Gernsbach straddles the Murg River in Baden-Württemberg’s northern Black Forest, a position that made it an important centre of the timber trade carried downstream toward the Rhine. Its compact historic core rises above the river with half-timbered houses, narrow lanes and the medieval Stork Tower. Forested slopes press close to the valley, while the Murg Valley Railway follows the river through settlements and towards the higher Black Forest. Gernsbach brings together the region’s long working relationship with woodland and a well-preserved small-town centre.
