City Trip in Baden-Württemberg

Vibrant Cities, Endless Variety

Forget "seen one, seen them all": On a city trip in Baden-Württemberg you can conquer the world’s tallest church tower in Ulm or casually dip your feet in Freiburg’s Bächle. Marvel at iconic objects in the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart or jewelry in Pforzheim. You can vibe to hip-hop in Mannheim or inhale the aroma of Trollinger wine in Germany’s oldest wine city, Heilbronn. Dive into one of Europe’s great spa towns in Baden-Baden, the media arts hub of Karlsruhe, or visit the classic Heidelberg. And always with you: a surprising amount of green spaces. We call it living diversity. So, ready for your next city break?
