If you want to become acquainted with Lorch, you have to discover it: 32 lanes with archways, nooks and recesses from the Middle Ages.
Romantic half-timbered houses, the well-fortified Strunck, the Leprosenhaus (house of lepers) with a round tower, the Zehnthof (storage yard for the duties to the church), the town hall and the church accentuate the wilful and discrete character of the city. A very striking building is the Hilchen House from the 16th century, located directly at the Rhine (Ren).
