Scenic views of Heidelberg . Take Bus # 33 from HbF or Bismarckplatz and get down at Rathaus/Bergbahn. Take the funicular and get down at first station (Schloss).

Rachel Powers

Thrilled I got to visit this gorgeous landmark ! Lots to explore in and around the castle and Heidelberg. Just note-if you take the Funicular to the very top during winter: DRESS WARM!

Connor

A battle torn castle that you can walk through. Not like Neuschwanstein were you see the perfectly preserved rooms. Very cool to walk through. Pharmacy Museum inside is really cool.

Mickey

Took a student-led tour and he gave us lots of background on the castle . Great views of town from a couple of vantage points. World's largest wine cask is huge! Many stories about footprint on terrace

If you go to Heidelberg you must visit the castle , no question here. If you visit the castle , go for a guided tour - also no question here.

Much of the castle is only accessible after hiring a tour guide. But it's still worth a visit. The view from up there is breathtaking.

buy a whole ticket of bergbahn which includes visit of palace musuem and allowed to take off at all stops! Of course check their web-site in advance in case rule's still unchanged!

Beautiful place to be... take the cable railway to the castle for EUR 7 incl. Entry to the castle .

Tania M Pollok

When you're in town check to see if there's a Schlossbeleuchtung during your stay, like tonight. It's worth watching from the other side of the Neckar or the castle garden .

If you're in Heidelbergfora weekend it could be useful to get the Heidelbergcard at the touristinfo. The Train-ride to the castle + entrance is included. Also some museums , special savings and so on..

Each year, it attracts around a million visitors from all over the world. Since the early 19th century, these impressive ruins have been synonymous with Romanticism.

Definitely take a tour (guided or audio) or else you won't know what's what... Unless you can read German.

Very cool castle . Interesting tour inside the place for history enthusiasts.

You should go there on a clear day! The view over the city from the terrace there is amazing!!!!!

Yuri Ichijō

I wasn't impressed... the castle itself is ruins, and most of them rather bleak except for one house front. There is an apothecary museum , but besides that only restaurants and a souvenir shop.
