This district, with its narrow streets, is home to some of Biberach's oldest houses. Some have been beautifully restored, such as the pottery. This neighborhood has a special flair.

From the city park, you can hike past the white tower up to Gigelberg. This is rewarded with a magnificent view of Biberach's historic old town.

The Biberach Donkey commemorates Biberach's most famous figure, the poet and writer Christoph Martin Wieland. One of his works is about a seemingly senseless dispute over a donkey's shadow. A merchant had hired a shepherd and his donkey. In the midday heat, the merchant wanted to sit in the donkey's shade, but the shepherd insisted that the shade would have to be paid for separately.... The artwork was created by the provocative artist Peter Lenk, who also created the Imperia statue in Konstanz. The artwork was unveiled on May 6, 2000.

Very nice! You can cross the Ratzengraben on these markers. It adds a little adventure to your city walk.

With the acquisition of the estate of the Munich painters Anton Braith (a Biberach native, 1836–1905) and Christian Mali (1832–1906) between 1905 and 1908, their prestigious, richly furnished studios became part of the Biberach Museum. Today, the Braith-Mali salons are considered the only completely preserved artists' studios from the 19th century. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Museum_Biberach
