Description

The large district town of Horb am Neckar is located on the Neckar at the eastern edge of the Black Forest. The well preserved old town was built on a rocky promontory above the Neckar. In addition to the places of interest, such as the collegiate church, castle garden and Schurkenturm (villains' tower), the large number of winding alleyways and narrow streets are perfect for a stroll through the town.
