Map of the low-emission zone of Reutlingen
The low-emission zone of Reutlingen is relatively large. Not only does it include the entire municipality of Reutlingen itself, but also Eningen just to the east lies within the low-emission zone. On the map above the the low-emission zone is shown with orange. Also keep in mind that the B28, the B313 and the B464 all lie inside the zone. If you come from or are on your way to Tübingen and want to avoid having to buy an emissions sticker, you are advised to use the B27 instead. Be aware however, that Tübingen has its own low-emission zone.
Parking outside the low-emission zone
If you want to visit Reutlingen, but do not have an emissions sticker, you can still park outside the low-emission zone. Our recommendation is to park close to the train station of Wannweil (A on the map). From here you can take several trains per hour, all of which will reach the city center of Reutlingen in about 10 minutes.
Which emissions sticker do you need in Reutlingen?
As in pretty much all other German low-emission zones, it is the green emissions sticker that is required in Reutlingen. Most electric vehicles, vehicles with a petrol engine and newer vehicles with a diesel engine are eligible for this sticker.

More than 100.000 inhabitants make Reutlingen one of the larger cities in the German state of Baden-Württemberg. Very characteristic for the region are the many half-timbered houses in the historical city center. A few medieval church towers are worth seeing as well. The Spreuerhofstraße is an interesting tourist attraction. With the width of only 31 centimeters, it is often described as the narrowest street in the world.
