Bretten - city of Melanchthon
Bretten is a quaint town in the heart of the Kraichgau.

Bretten looks back on a proud past with more than 1250 years of history. Since Bretten was first mentioned in the Lorscher Codex in 767 the town evolved from a small town to an important medium-sized hub. Today tracks of its history-charged past can still be found within numerous buildings and sights. Discover these via a guided city tour or during a stroll on your own. Museums like the one of the birthplace of the great reformer Philipp Melanchthon or the Museum in the Schweizer Hof offer diverse programs even on rainy days.

Bretten is located in the idyllic hilly countryside in the Kraichgau and is therefore an ideal starting point for exciting hiking and  cycling tours. Start an intensive shopping stroll through the various boutiques on the market square with its half-timbered buildings and enjoy delicious food options in the numerous cafes and restaurants.
