Nippenburg Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

The name "Nippenburg" has always been associated with Schwieberdingen. The Nippenburg was probably built in the 9th century. The first mention in the Codex Hirsaugensis reads: "When in 1160 Berwart built a mill below the Nippenburg for the monastery." This refers to today's Hagmühle in the Hemmingen area.
Located on a mountain spur, three sides of the castle were protected by a precipice and swamp, the fourth side with a mighty shield wall and moat in front of it was difficult to capture. There is no record of the Nippenburg being destroyed or burned down. For many centuries it provided its residents with safety and refuge until it was finally left to decay in the 17th and 18th centuries.
The restoration of the Nippenburg began in 1979. The securing work on the ruin, which was in danger of collapsing and overgrown with ivy, was carried out with painstaking manual labor. Later, the work was continued with a tractor that served as a tractor, construction crane and wheelbarrow all in one.
In September 1984, the work was largely completed. The Nippenburg is now once again one of the sights in the Ludwigsburg district and a popular local recreation destination in the region.

St. George's Church, Schwieberdingen

Highlight • Religious Site

St. George's Church is a late medieval fortified church from the 13th century in Schwieberdingen. The church took on its current form between 1436 and 1515, when, like many other village churches in Württemberg, it was remodeled and enlarged during the reign of Count Eberhard im Bart. The princely master builder Peter von Koblenz, who built the Gothic choir between 1495 and 1498, had a significant influence on the design.
The 43 m high church tower was initially built around 1515 with a pointed tower roof. The upper part of the tower was destroyed by a severe lightning strike in 1795. During reconstruction, the church received its current tower roof.
In 1962, the frescoes on the sides of the nave were uncovered again. In 1996, the church was completely renovated inside and out.
