background
Sternenfels lies on the western edge of the StrombergsThe Kraichbach, the namesake for the, rises in its area Kraichgau. Already in the Middle Ages the so-called. House sandstone reduced. Although this stone also served as the basic material for sculptures and buildings, it was primarily ground and sold as abrasive sand. This made Sternenfels one of the few places in the region where agriculture was not the main livelihood. The only significant part of agriculture is still viticulture today, so Sternenfels is also part of it Kraichgau-Stromberg wine route. After the First World War, the end of the stone mills came, not only due to the resistance to the destruction of the landscape, but also to the emergence of chemical cleaning agents.
