The Neckar defines the setting of Heilbronn — its banks, locks and port facilities have long tied this Baden-Württemberg city to trade and the surrounding wine country. Vineyards climb the slopes around town, while the river remains a working route through the Neckar valley. In the centre, the Renaissance Town Hall is known for its ornate astronomical clock, and the nearby Käthchenhaus recalls the heroine of Heinrich von Kleist’s play The Little Catherine of Heilbronn. Heilbronn also has a strong modern identity in science and education, centred on the experimenta science centre.
