Industrial city with quite a bit of history!
Mannheim is a rather industrial city, but it does have a few nice things to offer:
a castle, the water tower, great shopping opportunities and quite a few nice museums.
It was here that Carl Benz drove in his first automobile and Mozart lived in this city for a while - not bad, right?
Mannheim is not too far away from Karlsruhe, but I usually only encounter it as the place where I have to change trains.... But one day in 2002, hubby and I decided to go visit - and thinking about it, we should do that again one day, since there are also some really nice VT members living in Mannheim!!! |

The old part of Mannheim sounds interesting with the unusual street names! | christine.j Sat Nov 18, 2006 19:29 UTC
Germans, too ,can get lost in the "Quadrate", when they're new here - it happened to me when I had just come to Mannheim. Come back next year, for the birthday party (400 years), when hopefully!!! all the construction work is done. | cnango Sat Jul 29, 2006 07:48 UTC
