Flat Stanely at Rhine Ordnance Barracks, Heidelberg Castle, and Heidelberg Bridge
















Hunter with Stanley at the Christmas Bazaar at Rhine Ordnance Barracks.....Zucker means sweets (candy)

Me with the Heidelberg Castle in the background....one of the most popular in all of Europe

Heidelberg Bridge and old city (Cathedrals) and a barge
Entrance (city gate) to the old city
with the night lights on

Heidelberg was destroyed during the 30 years war with France...it is over 700 years old ( built in 1212) and added to around 1600...was also struck by a lightening bolt., in the late 1700's

The French burned it in 1689
alot of this was religious to do with the Holy Roman Empire and Martin Luther (the German one not MLK)

lots of history....:)
