Arrive in Bretten — the Kraichgau birthplace of the reformer Philipp Melanchthon — with a private fixed-price transfer from Frankfurt Airport (FRA).

Bretten is the birthplace of Philipp Melanchthon, the reformer and Martin Luther's closest collaborator, who was born here in 1497; the Melanchthonhaus on the market square, built between 1897 and 1903 on the site of the house where he was born, is now a memorial and museum. The town lies in the Kraichgau where the Salzach and Weißach streams join to form the Saalbach, 23 km north-east of Karlsruhe and 17 km north of Pforzheim. Bretten is also the home of Neff: Carl Andreas Neff began building coal-fired cookers here in 1877, and the BSH site that carries the brand today makes ovens and cooker hoods with more than 1,200 employees. The Stadtbahn S4 connects Bretten with Karlsruhe and Heilbronn, and regional trains run to Bruchsal and Mühlacker.
The Frankfurt Airport to Bretten transfer follows the A5 corridor with consistent journey times of around 1h 35min. Your FrankfurtRide chauffeur drops you at any address in Bretten — hotel, business, or private residence — all at the same fixed price with no detour surcharge.
