We decided to do a little bit of a tour day.... We went to Heidelberg which is about 20 mins from our city... I'm here about once a week as my son was born and lives in the city...

Post shots of the architecture too. I like to see photos of the old buildings and such. If any survived the war - not sure how Heidelberg fared.

Heidelberg is a town on the Neckar River in southwestern Germany. It’s known for venerable Heidelberg University, founded in the 14th century. Gothic Heiliggeistkirche church towers over the cafe-lined Marktplatz, a town square in the Altstadt (Old Town). The red-sandstone ruins of Heidelberg Castle, a noted example of Renaissance architecture, stand on Königstuhl hill.

Population:*154,715 (2015)

The castle has only been partially rebuilt since its demolition in the 17th and 18th centuries. It is located 80 metres (260*ft) up the northern part of the*Königstuhl*hillside, and thereby dominates the view of the old downtown. It is served by an intermediate station on the*Heidelberger Bergbahn*funicular railway*that runs from Heidelberg's Kornmarkt to the summit of the Königstuhl.

The earliest castle structure was built before 1214 and later expanded into two castles circa 1294; however, in 1537, a lightning-bolt destroyed the upper castle. The present structures had been expanded by 1650, before damage by later wars and fires. In 1764, another lightning-bolt caused a fire which destroyed some rebuilt sections.

The German Pharmacy Museum (Deutsches Apothekenmuseum) is located within the famous castle of Heidelberg, with the entrance off the courtyard in the catacomb basements of the Ottheinrichsbau. The museum houses a collection of over 20,000 objects presenting a journey through the history of medical science, especially focused on the development of pharmacology as first nearly a magic art, then a science. The collection on display in the chambers among the foundations of the castle is one of the largest in the world, covering two thousand years of western pharmacy history. Remedies for illness had been practiced since the dawn of man, but the official recognition of the pharmacist came in 1231 when the German Emperor Frederick II registered the first regulation of the practice with laws laying out the rights and the duties of physicians and pharmacists.
