HEIDELBERG, GERMANY


Germany's Most Famous University City


Heidelberg is home to Germany's oldest university and the city is set under the dominating Heidelberg Schloss high above on the steep hill (above). The city's charming cobblestone streets and platz, cool churches, student population and awesome castle immediately won me over.



The biggest highlight was exploring the Schloss - now one of my favorite castles. See the pictures below for the views over the city and the giant wine casks (the largest one held 228,000 liters...drunks.)
