Again and again shards and other ancient remains were found in the Heuneburg area whilst tending to the fields. Scientific excavations resulted that once there was a regional centre of power with city-like structures located here. Its period of glory being in the  early Celtic Iron Age in the time from the 7th to the 5th century B.C.. Its enclosure wall built from air-dried bricks is considered to be unique north of the alps. There is some indication that this city was known to the Greeks under the name of Pyrene. The results of the archaelogical research are illustrated in the museum Hundersingen in the Zehntscheuer. Reconstructed buildings in the open-air museum give a very accurate impression of different periods of history. Also included are the local and further away burial mounds and the Viereckschanze, all connected by a archaelogical circular hiking trail.Here you will also brush past the medieval settlement.
