Hire a car in Michelstadt with Hertz
Michelstadt is a German town situated in the Hesse region. Importantly, Michelstadt is at the heart of the Odenwald; a low mountain range steeped in mystery and blessed with a rare beauty. The fairy tale theme of the Odenwald is accentuated by the world renowned timber constructs in Michelstadt itself - the Town Hall and Thieves Tower constitute some of the most notable structures in this part of Germany, and a perfect setting for the popular Christmas Market. The forests and valleys surrounding the town make car hire in Michelstadt a popular choice. Hiring a car in Michelstadt is available from Frankfurt Airport or destinations throughout Hesse.
Michelstadt is one of the most charming towns in the Odenwald with its enchantingly picturesque town centre. The Town Hall and Castle Fürstenau are two of the most endearing landmarks. Hiring a car in Michelstadt is recommended as it gives you access to the forests and valleys of the Odenwald, as well as neighbouring cities such as Frankfurt - just an hour's drive north on the B45. Where Michelstadt has a quaint Odenwald charm, Frankfurt is a true financial capital, allowing this part of the world some wonderful contrasts. If the countryside is more your thing, rent a car in Michelstadt and drive out to the lofty peaks of Katzenbuckel Mountain - just a half-hour drive south also on B45.
