Economy and Infrastructure

The smallest district of Bad Dürrheim with a grown tradition of agriculture and handicrafts, 300 hectares of municipal area and a spruced up town center around the picturesque, Protestant church took part in the pilot project "Blooming Villages" for the local agenda.

Since 2008, Biesingen in the Schwarzwald-Baar district has been the village that produces the most solar energy per inhabitant. In the same category in the state comparison of Baden-Württemberg it ranks 10th and in the national comparison it ranks 47th (Süd-Westpresse October 28, 2008). In 2015, a care facility for unaccompanied minor refugees with 17 places was set up in the former Gasthaus Löwen, which is supported by the private organization "Social Competence" (Managing Director: Alex Fetzer). The Kinderhaus am Buchberg (Hüfingen-Behla) has set up an outdoor living group in another former inn.

Attractions

The neo-Gothic church in the middle of the village and the Altvogtshof with the 1987 redesigned village square are well worth seeing.
