For generations, Heidelberg has stood as a symbol of romanticism the world over. The “city with a heart” has been praised in poems, songs and anecdotes. Located along the Neckar River in southwestern Germany, it is a hub of manufacturing, transportation, education, research and cultural activities. The romantic image of the city was further enhanced when it provided the dramatic backdrop for the play, and later the Sigmund Romberg musical, The Student Prince.

Heidelberg had beautiful castles and Strousburg has unbelievable churches. Germany and France are the perfect places to visit in the winter. The snow is gorgeous.

Heidelberg is the third most well-known city in Germany. No wonder! With its schloss (castle) and altstadt (old town), a trip to Heidelberg is a nice part of any European vacation!
