Heilbronn Private Guided Walking Tour｜Germany

Welcome to Heilbronn, a city that combines Swabian virtues with Franconian industriousness. Heilbronn is much appreciated for its beautiful location on Necker River and its historical buildings but also for its Imperial history, modern art, and classic wine. Wine is important here. The famous german writer Goethe himself named 12 thousand acres of vineyards around the city, and the first Reich conference of German viticulture took place in this city in 1937. Young Theodor Heuss wrote his thesis on "Viticulture and the Winegrower Estate in Heilbronn am Neckar" in 1905, and when the Free Democratic Party was founded after the war, Heuss became its first chairman to then later rise to the office of the first President of West Germany, between 49 and 59.
