Gentle hills, picturesque streams, orchards, forests and fields, with four neighbourhoods nestled in between. Nature has given the municipality its name and lends it a charm all of its own. Located in the Karlsruhe TechnologyRegion, Pfinztal now has a population of almost 18,000. The fan-shaped city of Karlsruhe with its sights, cultural and leisure facilities or shopping destination is just a stone's throw away.
