Northwest climb to Freiolsheim from Malsch

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

The slope begins in Malsch at the roundabout next to the St. Cyriak Church and is moderate until the end of town with about 5% slope. From the end of the village, two steeper ramps alternate with about 12 and 10 percent and a short section with 6-8%. After about half of the climb you drive through a left turn, here it is short term 13-15% uphill. On the next kilometer it is now constant at 10 to 12% up the mountain. Shortly before the turnoff to Völkersbach the slope decreases. It follows a short ramp with an average of just under 10%. Once you have made it you are already on the plateau and leave the forest. About meadows you drive now the last 500 meters at very low slope to Freiolsheim.

Old town around Ettlingen Castle

Highlight • Historical Site

Ettlingen Castle is a baroque castle in the center of the Baden-Württemberg town of Ettlingen.
Today's castle had two, possibly three, previous buildings. After the Baden Margrave Hermann V was enfeoffed by Emperor Friedrich II with the town of Ettlingen, which was founded by the Hohenstaufens, his son Margrave Rudolf I of Baden built a castle complex in the middle of the 13th century - possibly on the remains of a previous Hohenstaufen building; However, a previous building has not yet been proven. The lower floors of the keep in the castle courtyard, which are still preserved today, date from this time.

A magnificent Renaissance castle followed in the 16th century. Two round corner towers were added to the south wing, and the keep was given a half-timbered upper floor. The three-wing Renaissance complex around the old keep, completed in 1600, was destroyed along with the entire city by French troops in the War of the Palatinate Succession in 1689.
