Don Dudea month agoOld gate made by the king/prince.for his wife. Used to have a garden behind it and the right two columns have animals hidden in their carvings
Chris Sirinop7 years ago180 degree views of Heidelberg from this park. With no fee and if you are on out in a good day this is the spot to see the city.
