"Sehenswertes in Reutlingen
Engste Straße der Welt
Die Spreuerhofstraße ist laut dem Guinnessbuch der Rekorde seit 2007 die engste Straße der Welt. Das Nadelöhr ist an seiner schmalsten Stelle lediglich 31 cm breit. Die Gasse entstand nach dem Stadtbrand von 1726, der Reutlingen weitestgehend zerstörte. Der Spreuerhof war ursprünglich ein Getreidelager für das Reutlinger Spital. In diesem reizvollen Winkel ist die Vergangenheit der mittelalterlichen Stadt noch lebendig"
EN (Translation):
"Worth seeing in Reutlingen
The narrowest street of the world
Spreuerhofstrasse is according to the Guinness book of the records since 2007 the narrowest street of the world. The bottleneck is only 31 cm wide at his schmalsten place. The lane originated after the town fire of 1726 which destroyed Reutlingen as much as possible. The Spreuerhof was originally a grain camp for the Reutlinger hospital. In this attractive corner the past of the medieval town is still alive"
