Directions
Schelztorstraße is part of Esslingen am Neckar, a town whose historic centre reflects centuries of trade and civic life along the Neckar.

As you walk, notice how its street views connect everyday city life with Esslingen’s older urban fabric. It is a useful starting point for exploring the town’s architectural heritage and understanding how a medieval trading centre remains a lived-in city.
