Heidelberg Castle

These pictures are taken in the courtyard of the Heidelberg Castle.


The Fountain Hall of the Heidelberg castle
Prince Elector Philipp (1476 - 1508) is said to have arranged the transfer of the hall’s columns from a decayed palace of Charlemagne to Heidelberg. The Prince Electors of the 16th and 17th century turned the fortress into a castle and added two representative palace buildings to the complex.
