4 days in Tubingen Itinerary

Displaying nearly 1,000 years of history in its historic old core, Tubingen today is a major national center of research, medicine, and the arts.

Give yourself a bit of retail therapy at Teamwelt and House of Black Forest Clocks. Do some cultural sightseeing at Schloss Hohentuebingen and Trifels Castle. Change things up with these side-trips from Tubingen: Dom St. Blasien (in Sankt Blasien), Der Esslinger Mittelaltermarkt & Weihnachtsmarkt (in Esslingen am Neckar) and Sigmaringen Castle (in Sigmaringen). There's still lots to do: take in the spiritual surroundings of Monastery and Palace Bebenhausen and admire the striking features of Maulbronn Monastery.
