Overview
Experience the magic of GPS playback on this immersive stroll through Heidelberg. On this self-guided audio tour, you'll find Baroque beauty and a fortune-telling monkey in this historic student town. What makes Heidelberg so unique, and why does it exude a charm distinct from other German towns? As you wander the narrow streets, these answers will unfold in its Old Town‘s storied passageways. You‘ll learn about the French troops who once reduced Heidelberg to ashes, only for the city to be reborn as an architectural wonderland. I‘ll tell you how Heidelberg was impacted by World War II, and you‘ll see the poignant book-burning memorial and the site of the old Jewish synagogue. You‘ll also pass the new and old university buildings and hear about some of their donors.
