Heidelberg River Cruises
In Heidelberg’s Marktplatz, a replica of the world’s largest wine barrel, the Heidelberg Tun, is on display and a highlight of the city’s festive market. Enchanting wooden huts are decorated with reindeer, ornaments and colorful ribbons. Department store windows reflect picturesque winter scenes. Smaller markets feature unique handicrafts, such as hand-carved figurines or handblown ornaments, while Karlsplatz, framed by the romantic backdrop of Heidelberg Castle, is home to one of Germany’s most beautiful ice rinks.
