What you can expect

  • Sundowner Tour: Experience Heidelberg Castle in the evening light and enjoy the panorama from the Königstuhl with a glass of wine.

    Heidelberg is one of the most beautiful cities in Germany and captivates visitors from all over the world. Its unique location in the Neckar Valley, the historic old town and the majestic castle ruins form a backdrop that inspired the poets of the Romantic period.

    Taking the funicular up to the castle

    The Heidelberg funicular is an attraction in itself. We take the lower funicular, one of the most modern funiculars in Germany, from Kornmarkt to the castle in just a few minutes. Heidelberg Castle, the epitome of German Romanticism, towers majestically above the city. A walking tour through the castle courtyard and the castle garden reveals the eventful history of the former residence of the Electors Palatine.

    World records and the history of pharmacy in the castle grounds

    Two special highlights await within the castle walls: In the King's Hall building, there is access to the cellar, which houses the legendary Great Barrel. This largest fillable wine barrel in the world was made in the 18th century from 130 oak trunks and holds over 219,000 litres of wine. Right afterwards, the German Pharmacy Museum invites you on a journey through time. The exhibits offer fascinating insights into the history of medicine from ancient times to the 21st century.

    Taking the mountain railway up to the Königstuhl

    The upper, nostalgic funicular takes us on a slow, steep ride up to the Königstuhl. Once you reach an altitude of 568 metres, you can escape the hustle and bustle of the city. When the weather is good, Heidelberg's local mountain offers breathtaking views over the Neckar Valley, the Rhine Plain and sometimes even as far as the Vosges Mountains. We will enjoy this breathtaking view with a glass of wine (or, alternatively, grape juice or water) before the comfortable van takes us back down to the starting point.
