  • This tower is quite the most large and high Castle of Heidelberg with its 28 meters high. Once inside the Castle I was surprised enough see that it is almost hollow. A bit of history: this tower was built during the reign of Luis V and originally it was topped by a conical roof.

  • Beautiful location and amazing look. The ride to the castle is not complete without going here. Zoom camera helps in the photos. Recommend

  • Poor Tower, you're not ;-) so thick All kidding aside, the Tower belongs to the Castle and offers interesting input and views.

Where to stay in Heidelberg

Most of the city's lodging is centralized near Altstadt, the Old Town. Here cafes, shops, and tourist sites line the cobbled streets. Many of the guesthouses here work hard to retain the area's historical feel.
