Medieval city just south of Weinheim with very impressive castle ruins and one of the oldest universities in the world.
The Bergstrasse Route runs for approximately 80 km between the Rhine Plain, the Rhine and Neckar rivers and the western slopes of the Odenwald forest from the university city of Darmstadt in the north to the wine-growing city of Wiesloch south of Heidelberg. This charming patch of vineyarded countryside is known for its fine wines.
