Made in SouthWest Germany

Some of the world’s most famous brands are designed and made in SouthWest Germany.

These include WMF (cooking ware, glass, cutlery, and tableware), Ritter Sport (chocolate bars), Albgold Noodles (homemade swabian egg-spaetzle, organic, sweet, spicy pasta) and Steiff (teddy bears and other cuddly toys).

Some of these companies have museums; some offer factory tours; others have factory outlet shops. Follow your interests...
