Hesse is the world's most widely read German-language author. Also nearby (about 2 km in the neighboring town of Hemmenhofen) is the long-standing living and studio house of the famous German painter Otto Dix, who found asylum here on the Höri during the Nazi era and stayed there afterwards.

Paul Klee and rightly carries this name.
