About location

Among the places of Baden-Württemberg, Burgstetten stands out for its setting in the valley of the Murr River. This municipality in the Rems-Murr district lies east of Stuttgart, amid a settled and agricultural landscape shaped by the river corridor. It comprises Burgstall an der Murr and Erbstetten, two communities that joined to form Burgstetten in 1971. The Murr rises in the Swabian Forest and meets the Neckar at Marbach am Neckar, placing Burgstetten between wooded uplands and the Stuttgart region. Cultivated slopes, fields and residential areas define the local character rather than a large urban centre. The Murr Railway also follows the valley, linking the area with Stuttgart and towns farther inland.

City Burgstetten

Burgstetten has served as a unified municipality in Baden-Württemberg since 1971, when the former communities of Burgstall and Erbstetten were brought together. It lies in the Murr valley in the Rems-Murr district, northeast of Stuttgart, where the river has long shaped settlement and transport routes. The Murr Railway passes through Burgstall, linking the area with Stuttgart and Crailsheim. Burgstetten is defined less by a single monumental sight than by its two historic local centres and the everyday rhythm of a well-connected Swabian community.

Baden-Württemberg
Region Baden-Württemberg

Baden-Württemberg is best known within Germany for the Black Forest, the wooded upland region that shapes much of the state’s southwest. Its terrain also reaches from the Upper Rhine plain and its wine-growing areas to the limestone ridges of the Swabian Jura, while Lake Constance marks part of the southern frontier. Stuttgart, the state capital, is closely tied to the automobile industry and hosts the Mercedes-Benz Museum and Porsche Museum. Heidelberg’s old town and castle add another important strand to the region’s identity, alongside renowned universities, spas and regional cooking.

Germany stretches from the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts to the Alps on its southern border, encompassing northern plains, river valleys and forested uplands. The Rhine, Danube and Elbe have long connected its regions, while the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps give the south a more dramatic relief. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island reflect the capital’s role in German history and culture. Cologne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rises above the Rhine, and the Bauhaus movement, founded in Weimar in 1919, transformed modern design far beyond Germany. Regional cooking, Christmas markets and brewing traditions bring further character to daily life. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Germany.
