Directions
Strohstraße is part of the historic center of Esslingen am Neckar, a town whose medieval prosperity was shaped by trade and its status as a Free Imperial City. Esslingen’s old town preserves many medieval and early modern buildings, including the timber-framed houses for which it is known. Strohstraße is worth exploring as part of this wider streetscape rather than as a single monument: walking its length helps reveal the close-knit pattern of lanes that gives the center its character. Although the street’s name evokes straw, its precise origin should not be assumed from the name alone. A visit offers a glimpse of the everyday urban setting surrounding Esslingen’s better-known historic landmarks.
Before you enter
- Save Strohstraße on a map; a street is easier to miss than a landmark.
