Give yourself a bit of retail therapy at Teamwelt and House of Black Forest Clocks. Do some cultural sightseeing at Schloss Hohentuebingen and Maulbronn Monastery. 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 explore the historical opulence of Trifels Castle.
