Göppingen, Germany - Schwäbisch Hall, Germany


 Going from Göppingen we head further north on highway 297 to the small town of Schwäbisch Gmünd, then transfer onto highway 298 to get to our final destination of Schwäbisch Hall. Schwäbisch Hall was founded in about 1204, and was a major producer of coins and salt. there are many activities in Schwäbisch Hall, some of the main activities are hiking, seeing the old town hall and saint Michael cathedral merge  is on the top of the list. One great perk of this city is that everything is relatively cheap compared to other parts of Germany. One thing about the entire region is that they have their own major dialect called Swabian. Schwäbisch Hall even has their own American Football Team called the Schwäbisch Hall Unicorns.

Ulm,Germany- Göppingen, Germany



Göppingen, Germany is a beautiful little town outside of Stuttgart, and to get there from Ulm all you have to do is head north west on highway 10 and highway 466.



when you get into Göppingen, there are several musts in my opinion. First thin you should do is go visit the Märklin Museum. While it is a small museum, it will take you through the production of the Märklin trains from start to finish. The second best attraction in Göppingen is the Kunsthalle, which is a while small, very fulfilling art gallery.
