About location

Tucked between the foothills of the Swabian Alb and the Neckar valley, Kirchheim unter Teck is a place whose character is shaped by its position beneath Teckberg. The Lauter runs through the town before joining the Neckar, while the wooded rise of Teckberg gives the area its distinctive Alb-edge profile. Kirchheim’s compact centre is marked by half-timbered houses, steep tiled roofs and pedestrian streets. Kirchheim Castle, a former residence of the Württemberg dukes, recalls the town’s long connection with the former state of Württemberg. Above the town, the ruins of Teck Castle recall the medieval Dukes of Teck. Together, the town and its surrounding slopes make a practical base for exploring the Alb foothills.

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.
