Description
Heidelberg Germany is one of the oldest in Germany and is renowned for its baroque old town, lively university atmosphere, excellent pubs and evocative half-ruined castle. You follow in the footsteps of the late 18th- and early 19th-century romantics, most notably the poet Goethe. Britain’s William Turner also loved Heidelberg, which inspired him to paint some of his greatest landscapes. Heidelberg has a red-roofed townscape of remarkable architectural unity. After having been all but destroyed by French troops under Louis XIV (1690s), it was built pretty much from scratch during the 18th century. Unlike the vast majority of German cities, it emerged from WWII almost unscathed. Today, Heidelberg is one of Germany’s most romantic cities with heartstopping panoramas.
