Not on the Kocher-Jagst cycle path, but Bad Wimpfen is also worth a visit!

One of the most beautiful half-timbered houses in southern Germany. It was built in 1597 using half-timbering techniques and acquired its current appearance through renovation in 1890. The ground floor of the building was originally a semi-open market hall; the current storage rooms on the ground floor were created later. During its long history, the building once served as the chancellery of the Knights' Canton of Odenwald, whose coat of arms still adorns the gable end, and later as a police station. The Old Town Hall was completely renovated in 2016/2017. (https://www.pro-region.de/de/proregion/dieregion/staedte_und_gemeinden/Bad_Friedrichshall_Gebaeude_Kochendorfer_Rathaus.php)

The lock on the Kocher near Neuenstadt is a rather inconspicuous but charming structure that regulates the river's course and ensures a constant water level.
