Heidelberg in One Day

The ruins of Heidelberg Castle, an exceptional example of German Renaissance architecture, tower over the former Electoral Palatinate capital. The castle and old town are among the top ten most visited sights in Germany. From here you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Neckar city, which has been much sung about, not only by the poets of the Romantic period. Heidelberg, with the oldest university on German soil, has one of the longest pedestrianised 'main streets' in Europe, where cozy wine taverns, cafés, pubs and attractive shops line up. The lively old town is characterised by many historic buildings. Impressive works of art can be found in the Kurpfälzisches Museum and other collections. The city tour takes you to the most important sights in the centre of Heidelberg. On foot and in one day, you can experience 1000 years of city history in an entertaining and informative way.
