About

The Aussichtsturm Auf Dem Heiligenberg in Heidelberg's Handschuhsheim offers breathtaking views of the old town and the Heidelberg Castle. As an attraction with a Google rating of 4.5, it promises a worthwhile visit for all ages. The site is part of the "Schöne Radrunde," renowned for its numerous towers and scenic biking routes. A few trees have been cleared to enhance the vistas, ensuring clear sightlines from both the lower platform and the top of the tower. Conveniently, there's a free parking area nearby. While the tower stands within the ruins of the St. Stephen's Monastery, be sure to plan your visit outside of January and February 2025, when the site will be closed.

Perfekte Aussicht auf die Altstadt und das Schloss vom Turm aus. Ein paar Bäume sind dafür gerodet worden. Der kostenfreie Parklpatz ganz in der Nähe ist zwar nur über eine Straße in schlechten Zustand zu erreichen, es lohnt sich aber auf alle Fälle.
