Great section, even if there are always disputes with the owner about the use of the nearby section through the grove. Here you have a beautiful view of the Schwarzbach, the course of the river is well laid out and the bridge lets you see trains up close - an experience especially for the little ones on a bike tour

When the temperatures are warm, it's worth taking a little refreshment.

Eschelbronn has been allowed to bear the nickname Schreinerdorf with the permission of the state since 2022. As a small village dominated by agriculture, Eschelbronn hardly offered sufficient earning opportunities for craftsmen in the 18th and 19th centuries. It owes its origins as a carpenter's village partly to coincidence, but also partly to the courage, imagination and ability of its inhabitants to recognize and implement new possibilities.... Further extensive explanations on the way to the carpenter's village can be found on the community website. https://www.eschelbronn.de/gemeinde-eschelbronn/geschichte/Schreinerdorf

The Ziegler'sche Mühle was a saw and grinding mill in Eschelbronn. From 1668, the mill complex stood on the bridge at the Schwarzbach and led to repeated controversies due to contractual and legal disputes between the operators and the community, as well as to recurring floods caused by their location. In 1985 it was demolished. Today there is a memorial square with a water wheel and an information board.

In Eschelbronn's center there are buildings worth seeing around a square and the carpenter's fountain, which points to Eschelbronn's tradition as a carpenter's village. On the square there is the town hall built in 1838 with a high water mark from 1994, the evangelical church from 1811 and the old vicarage from 1783 with the coat of arms of the builder Carl Philipp von Venningen. The second (alliance) coat of arms is red with gold diagonal bars and comes from Carl Philipp's wife Maria Anna von Hutten.

This old Eschelbronn station building is used privately and bears a coat of arms - probably a family coat of arms of the owner.

The railway bridge over the Schwarzach is a popular photo spot. The high water mark from 1993 is interesting.
