Welcome to Nagold!
Experience a green urban oasis
Wonderful municipal charm with a historic backdrop, all surrounded by a diverse natural landscape – that's the best way to describe Nagold in just a few words.
Outdoor activities
The town is located between the Northern Black Forest and the Heckengäu region and is the ideal starting point for outdoor adventures. An extensive network for walkers and cyclists, a high-rope course, the popular water park, and lots of other recreational facilities offer visitors a welcome break from their everyday lives. A particular highlight is the 7-Berge-Weg hiking trail, which was given the seal of approval in January 2019 by Germany's quality assurance scheme for walking routes "Qualitätsweg Wanderbares Deutschland". The 7-Berge-Weg is a challenging route that covers around 22 kilometres, taking hikers around Nagold's surrounding peaks. As you navigate the trail, fantastic views open up over the town and the distant mountain ranges.
Shopping in town and in the outlet stores
Nagold offers a municipal charm. Splendid half-timbered houses, historic buildings and narrow alleyways with attractive shops make a stroll through Nagold very special. The Nagold "shopping experience" is characterised by the fact that everything is within easy reach, and you will find excellent advice and a wide range of products. Bargain hunters are also catered for in the Nagold outlets. Well-known brands such as Digel, Betty Barclay, Angel Jeans or Rolf Benz tempt shoppers with their fantastic special offers.
Art and culture
Art and culture are on offer all year round here. The Alte Seminarturnhalle is a great insider tip for fans of the cabaret scene. The venue hosts regular cabaret, theatre and concert performances. The legendary Schlossberg is home to the imposing Hohennagold castle ruins. Events are held here several times a year. On these occasions, the castle is transformed into a fairytale paradise, a medieval setting, or a live stage in the heart of nature. The "Krautbühl", which is where the Celtic "Fürstengrab" burial site is located, provides further evidence of Nagold's long history. The Nagold town museum is in the Steinhaus, which is Nagold's oldest building. This offers an exciting way to explore the town's history.
