The historic workers' settlement in Kuchen was commissioned by the factory owner Arnold Staub and built between 1858 and 1887. It is one of the most interesting settlements of its kind in Central Europe. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historische_Arbeitersiedlung_Kuchen Further background information can be found here: https://www.kuchen.de/media/files/hp-kw-18-arbeiterspiedlung-flyer.pdf

The cycle path along the Fils has been closed since June 2024 due to a landslide. Initial reconstruction work has now begun, with the aim of Summer 2025. :-( After a Herculean effort by the construction company, the Filstalradweg along the Fils near Kuchen has been continuously passable again since March 30, 2025.
