Tübingen is a university city in the centre of Baden-Württemberg. It is located on the Neckar around 30 kilometres south of Stuttgart. The city is the seat of the district of Tübingen and the administrative district of the same name and was the state capital of Württemberg-Hohenzollern from 1947 to 1952.
In Tübingen, in the small forest Elysium, below the Luise-Wetzel-Path near the Botanical Garden at 48 ° 32 '15.9 "N, 9 ° 2' 28.21" E, the geographic centre of Baden-Württemberg is located according to the centre of gravity calculation method. A three-ton, conical stone from the Franconian Jura symbolizes this point. It has an incline of 11.5 °; this should represent half of the earth's inclination.
After “discovering” the Pile Dwelling Museum, our tour of Bad Buchau should lead to another highlight in the region that we had not expected.
In life you always learn something new, at least if you keep an eye for your surroundings or receive appropriate advice, as in the case of the “wobbly forest” near Bad Buchau at Lake Federsee.
