Hello hello, my dear readers. Today I want to share with you some images of a town that, by chance of destiny and the wisdom of a North American general, is still standing. This is Heidelberg, in South Germany.
Heidelberg is among the most beautiful towns in Europe, being a place frequented by tourists and all types of visitors.
It is impossible not to fall in love with this town that still preserves some structures from the Middle Ages.
Legend has it that during World War II, the Allies' order was to destroy every German town to rubble. But the general at the head of the advance said that such a beautiful town could not be destroyed.

[The town has developed for centuries, on the banks of the Neckar River, a river with which it has an interesting story of love and hate, because although it is an important waterway for commerce, it has also caused thousands of floods during periods of flooding. deaths.]
[Heidelberg Castle was one of the few structures to be damaged during World War II. Inside it has a rich collection of medieval art, with an impressive museum.]
[The Castle is a highly visited place, and is also the venue for various artistic events throughout the year]
[The Neckar River basin is an important wine-growing area, and in the town you can drink some of the best wines in Europe]
[Inside the Castle it is possible to find the largest wine barrel in the world, The Great Barrel, not far away are the second and third]
[Bridge over the Neckar River, a place for lovers]
[The University of Heidelberg, one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in Germany. One of the first places where Geology was studied.]
[Heidelberg's Gothic cathedral, a jewel of medieval art. The town was the home of two greats in world history, for a time Erasmus of Rotterdam and Martin Luther lived in this town.]
[Certainly, Heidelberg is a town that seems frozen in time, and is without a doubt one of the greatest architectural treasures in Europe. A must-visit place to enjoy its castles, interior canals, wines and seasonal strawberries]
