Surely you have already heard the phrase „It ends like the Hornberg shooting“. But what exactly is behind it?
Experience on the comfortable Hornberg-Shooting-Route from the town center up to Hornberg Castle in an entertaining way how it might have happened. Along the way, play stations also make the route special for children, and picnic opportunities await you. The path is also well suited for families with strollers. On the castle hill, you will enjoy a great view of the town, the viaduct of the Black Forest Railway, and the Gutach valley. In the powder tower cave, the last station of the Hornberg-Shooting-Route, a multimedia presentation with a wink and much self-irony shows you how the famous mishap might have occurred.
Due to the 14 stations, you need about 1 hour and 45 minutes for the Hornberg-Shooting-Route.
Author’s recommendation
Visit the world-famous folk play on the open-air stage Hornberg, which is performed every year between June and August.

Roadbook
Our little discovery tour begins at the Evangelical Church. From here, keep your eyes open! Because if you look closely, you will discover the small cannon marks on the sidewalk – they show us the way, step by step, up to Hornberg Castle Hill.
From the Evangelical Church, the path leads us through the lovingly maintained rectory garden to the town fountain in the main street, where the lively bustle of the town awaits us.
We stroll along the main street, dip into Werderstraße, and shortly after turn right into Schlossstraße. With every step, we come closer to the historic heart of Hornberg.
Passing the atmospheric open-air stage and the romantic castle pond, the path leads uphill. Once at the top, not only a touch of history awaits us but also a wide view over the valley and the roofs of the town – a perfect moment to take a breath and admire.
