Hirschhorn Castle

Highlight • Castle

If Heidelberg is too crowded for you, come here! Beautiful old town, a pretty castle and great views. Plus an almost complete city wall. All this without an entrance fee and with relatively few tourists, a real gem!

There are some beautiful river bends, whether on the Inn near Wasserburg, or on the Saar near Mettlach, etc. ... the Neckar bend near Hirschhorn is definitely one of them as an impressive sight.
One overlooks the Hirschhorn district of Ersheim with the famous chapel up to the lock, the old town and the Hirschhorn castle.
