Hi Christian, another very nice page of yours. Your first tip, the Deutschhof, is where I'm going next Friday to do a teachers' workshop.

I enjoyed the Neckar River in Tubingen - it looks very scenic in Heilbronn, too. It seems there is a patron saint for almost everything - I wonder if there's one for travelers??
