Places to see in ( Heilbronn - Germany )

Places to see in ( Heilbronn - Germany )

Heilbronn is a city on the Neckar River in southwest Germany. St. Kilian Church dates back to the 13th century, with an octagonal Renaissance tower and a Gothic altarpiece. The Town Hall facade has a 16th-century astronomical clock. North in the Neckar Valley, the late-medieval Guttenberg Castle has a museum and live birds of prey. East of the city, the area around Lake Breitenau has trails and vineyards.

More than 1,200 years in the making, Heilbronn on the Neckar River has a few strings to its bow. The city is Württemberg’s wine capital, and has a wine festival in September that pulls in hundreds of thousands of people. Heilbronn also has the heritage you’d expect from a former Imperial Free City, and this is waiting for you inside the Gothic St Kilian’s Church, where there’s a Late Gothic altarpiece of breathtaking beauty.

The banks of the Neckar are as picturesque as they come, especially in the green south Heilbronn around the Wertwiesenpark. And if you’re clued up on German literature, you can come to the Medieval tower where Götz von Berlichingen, the hero of Goethe’s drama was held captive.

Heilbronn’s main historic building, St Kilian’s Church is a Gothic hall church made from Heilbronn’s sandstone. On the gable of Heilbronn town hall’s old Renaissance facade is a fantastic piece of 16th-century workmanship by Isaak Habrecht who also designed the clock at Strasbourg Cathedral. The clock has three faces: At the top, below the bell is the moon clock, displaying the phases of the moon over 30 days.

After gazing at the Astronomical Clock on Marktplatz you can also come around to the southwest corner of the square to appreciate this beautiful Gothic house of Käthchenhaus dating to the 14th century. Experimenta is an interactive science centre and laboratory that opened in a former warehouse on Kraneninsel, between the Wilhelmskanal and the Neckar in 2003. Using 150 interactive exhibits, the museum dealt with topics like communication, renewable energy and transport technology.

At the former Bundesbahn locomotive depot in Heilbronn’s Böckingen district is a museum with a small fleet of locomotives and wagons, mostly from the first half of the 20th century. This former commandery of Deutschhof for the Teutonic Order goes back to the 1200s and has some of the oldest surviving architecture in Heilbronn. After Heilbronn was taken by the Electorate of Württemberg in 1805 the complex had all sorts of uses, becoming a barracks, court and then a government building.

Drawing on Heilbronn’s municipal archives, the Haus der Stadtgeschichte is a neatly presented museum about the history of the city. The oldest park of Pfühlpark in Heilbronn dates back to 1575 when the foundation stone for the Trappenseeschlösschen was laid. The little palace of Trappenseeschlösschen in the Trappensee deserves a bit more attention.

In front of the church on Kilainsplatz is a fountain that is as old as the city itself. The name “Siebenröhren” comes from the fountain’s seven pipes, and the fountain sits under a Renaissance pavilion from the 1540s with vaults and a gable. Right on the Neckar, Heilbronn’s other inviting park was started in 1982 to be ready for Baden-Württemberg Landesgartenschau (State Garden Show) in 1985. People visit to amble on either bank of the river, which you can cross on a footbridge, and to have barbecues in the designated area on summer evenings.

Two towers from Heilbronn’s once fearsome defensive walls have made it to the present day. The Bollwerksturm (Bulwark Tower) dates from the Hohenstaufen dynasty in the 11th and 12th centuries and was on the northwest corner of the city wall. The Botanischer Obstgarten came about in the 1850s to combat some of the social ills that had come with industrialisation. Around the tower there’s a small playground and the Wartberggaststätte, a restaurant that first opened in 1760 and counts Goethe among its former guests.
