About Tübingen
Tübingen is one of Germany's most beautiful and beloved university cities — a compact, hilly city on the Neckar River whose Eberhard Karls University (founded 1477) has shaped the city's character and intellectual life for over five centuries, producing an extraordinary list of alumni including Hegel, Hölderlin, Schelling, Eduard Mörike, Hermann Hesse and Friedrich Schiller. The city's red-roofed old town, climbing the hill above the Neckar with the Stiftskirche and the Tübingen Castle at its summit, is one of the most perfectly preserved and most photographed historic townscapes in Baden-Württemberg, almost entirely undamaged by WWII.
Tübingen's Hölderlinturm — the tower on the Neckar bank where the poet Friedrich Hölderlin lived for 36 years (1807–1843) in the care of the carpenter Zimmer, growing increasingly detached from the world — is one of the most affecting literary heritage sites in Germany. The famous Neckar punting (Stocherkahn) — flat-bottomed boats propelled by poles, used by students for leisure and the famous chaotic Stocherkahnrennen race held annually at Corpus Christi — is the most characteristically Tübingen leisure activity and a summer evening ritual on the willow-shaded river. The nearby Bebenhausen Monastery, a remarkably preserved Cistercian foundation in the forest 5km north, is one of the finest monastery complexes in southwestern Germany.
Important Transfer Information
Neckar Punting (Stocherkahn): Hiring a Stocherkahn (flat-bottomed punt) on the Neckar is the quintessential Tübingen experience — propelling yourself slowly under the willow trees past the Hölderlinturm and the colourful half-timbered houses of the Neckarfront. Boats are hired from several operators on the Neckar bank. The annual Stocherkahnrennen (Corpus Christi) is one of the most chaotic and entertaining student festivals in Germany.
University City Character: Tübingen's student population (approximately 28,000 out of 90,000 total inhabitants) gives the city a lively, intellectually vibrant and youthful character unlike most comparable German historic cities. The Marktplatz with its Renaissance Rathaus, the lanes of the old town and the Neckar bank cafés are animated throughout the year by university life.
Short Transfer: At just 30km and 32 minutes, Tübingen is one of the closest destinations to Stuttgart Airport — a quick and easy transfer along the B27 southward. The short distance makes this one of the most affordable and convenient airport connections in the Stuttgart region.
