Luckily for us, it was subsequently replanted and the Black Forest National Park was established in 2014 Baden-Württemberg’s first national park. Wooden buildings, farmsteads and items such as the famous wooden cuckoo clock are still almost exclusively associated with the region.īy the 19th century, the forest had been almost completely deforested, which just shows how much wood was extracted and used for commercial purposes. Residents used the material most in abundance to create their wares. One of the locations of the 17th-century peasant’s uprising, the Black Forest has long been associated with traditional farming, forestry works and other traditionally working-class professions. Relatively small at 150km long by 50km wide, The Black Forest (Schwarzwald in German) has an interesting and varied history, accounting for its fame despite covering such a small area.
