Schwäbisch Gmünd – A place with character

City. History. Nature.
Schwäbisch Gmünd blends history with the present while nestled close to the natural beauty of the Swabian Alb. As the oldest Staufer city in southwestern Germany, its past is palpable – in the alleyways, squares, and around the market square. At the same time, the city feels vibrant and welcoming. Its manageable size ensures short distances and an atmosphere that makes it easy to find your way around – between the historic center and the surrounding countryside.

Experience history

Schwäbisch Gmünd's old town is easily explored on foot. Narrow streets, squares, and churches tell the story of the oldest Staufer city in southwestern Germany. Many things are close together and appear organically grown, not staged.
