Geographically, Nattheim is located in a picturesque landscape at the foot of the Swabian Alb. The community is surrounded by rolling hills and green meadows and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding area. Nattheim is particularly well known for its historical significance as a former Roman site.

For those interested in culture, there are numerous sights such as Kapfenburg Castle or the Church of St. Nicholas with its beautiful frescoes. A stroll through the old town centre is also worthwhile: here you will find lovingly restored half-timbered houses and narrow alleys.

Of course, outdoor lovers will also get their money's worth here: hike along the Jakobsweg (St. James' Way) or explore the region by bike - tours are especially beautiful in spring or autumn when nature shows its colourful colours.

Nattheim also has a lot to offer in terms of cuisine: Be sure to try regional specialities such as Maultaschen or lentils with spaetzle - these dishes are guaranteed to tantalise your palate!

If it should rain, we can recommend a visit to the Auberlehaus Museum - here you can learn more about the life of the inhabitants from the past to the present.

One of the highlights of the year is the annual Kapfenburg Castle Festival, where top-class artists from all over the world perform. The Christmas market in the historic town centre is also worth a visit.

Overall, Nattheim is definitely worth a trip - whether you prefer cultural or sporting activities or simply want to enjoy nature. We hope this guide will help you make your stay in Nattheim unforgettable!

Zu Besuch auf dem Schafhof Smietana (als Schafpatin war mir das besonders wichtig) bei den frischen Lämmis. 😍
