Between Campus and Old Town: Heilbronn in Transition

At the education campus, the discovery experience begins where the Knowledge City and city history intersect. The meeting point at Restaurant Campusgarden, Bildungscampus 1, makes the thematic line of the tour immediately palpable: here, academic dynamism meets the urban everyday life of an emerging city. The city of Heilbronn describes the scope of the tour as a contrast between lively present and historical substance.

Historical Sights with a Local Perspective

Along the way, the tour opens the view to the historical sights of the city center and the eventful history of Heilbronn. The official description leads the group to the traditional heart of the city at the marketplace.
