Was nicely renovated. What is missing, however, is a seating area inside or a bench outside. It would be a shame for this structure to be just a rain shelter.

🌉 The covered Nagold Bridge (often simply called the wooden bridge) in Wildberg is a real highlight for hikers and cyclists in the Northern Black Forest.

Only the tower of the old town parish church remains. It was built in 1401 and rebuilt after the town fire of 1893.
