}}'''Nusplingen''' is a [[Swabia]]n town in the [[Zollernalbkreis|Zollernalb district]], [[Baden-Württemberg]], [[Germany]].


⚫
'''Nusplingen''' is a municipality of the [[Zollernalbkreis|Zollernalb district]] of [[Baden-Württemberg]], [[Germany]].
The town is located in the valley of the small river [[Bära]], about 12 miles up-river from where it flows in to the [[Danube]]. In the [[Middle Ages]] Nusplingen gained the rights of a city. The town today has only a population of a few thousand people, but the big open market square is still to be seen in the town center in front of the town hall.
