The sculpture "13/93" belongs to Erich Hauser's late works, which employ crystalline, fractured triangular forms whose vertical and lateral, drifting points reach towards the sky. The apparent splitting into individual geometric forms, however, does not lead to a fragmentation of the basic structure, but rather to a unity that is co-staged by the light. The prismatic decomposition of the body is reminiscent of the Cubist style at the beginning of the 20th century.

A beautiful stretch of trail off the busy B295, which takes you directly to the outskirts of Calw—or away from it. It runs right along the edge of the barracks on a fairly straight path. The downhill is easy, but as mentioned, you're not alone, so slow down, especially where paths join.

Beautiful view of Ehningen and Gärtringen

The church was built in the 10th/11th century, and parts of the church tower and north wall still survive today. In 1488, the nave was added to the existing defensive tower, and Protestant sermons have been held here since 1548. In 1750, the gallery parapet was painted with 30 biblical motifs.

You can ride the short stretch from the turnoff to Mindersbach to the Pfrondorf Mill on the road and maintain a high speed. This is an attractive option during off-peak times. When traffic is heavy, which is often the case, you can also opt for the bike path – but you'll have to accept one or two steep climbs and a lower speed. The route is a bit more adventurous: first, a very steep, confusing section under the road, then over the wooden bridge, and then a steep climb again just before Emmingen.

A lovely, quiet town center with charming half-timbered houses. From west to east, toward Tennental and Gärtringen, the road is always downhill. At first glance, you wouldn't think that in the final days of the war, two-thirds of the town fell victim to bombs, leaving over 600 people homeless in one fell swoop. Reconstruction lasted until 1957 and involved redesigning the plots to create more space. The half-timbered houses were finally rebuilt according to the principles of the Heritage Architecture Association and can still be admired today. Incidentally, Deckenpfronn belonged to Calw until the end of 1972, before being incorporated into the Böblingen district on New Year's Day 1973.

Top-notch bike path. Slightly hilly, superbly paved, ideal for speed, even with a racing bike.
