Metzingen: Vereinsheim Roßfeld - Roßfeld Airfield - Flugplatz
Metzingen has served as a market town in Württemberg since the late Middle Ages. Roßfeld Airfield lies in the town’s rural surroundings, where working fields and rounded slopes rise toward the Swabian Alb. The airfield and Vereinsheim Roßfeld belong to a landscape shaped by farming rather than urban development, giving this part of Metzingen an open agricultural character. The Erms runs through the town below, while the historic centre remains distinct from the commercial district associated with Hugo Boss, the fashion company founded in Metzingen in 1924. That contrast of small-town Swabian history, industry and upland farmland defines Metzingen beyond its outlet stores.

The Erms River defines the setting of Metzingen — its valley at the foot of the Swabian Alb gives the town a compact form between vineyard slopes and the wider Neckar region. Metzingen is closely associated with Hugo Boss, founded here in 1924; the company’s headquarters remain in town, while Outletcity has made this former textile centre an international shopping destination. Württemberg winegrowing still shapes local identity, and the historic centre provides a contrast to the modern retail quarter.

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.
