Introducing Mannheim
Just 21km northwest of Heidelberg, the sprawling industrial centre of Mannheim isn’t likely to appear on anyone’s list of the Top 10 (or even Top 100) German tourist destinations. It offers visitors few specific attractions or things to do but compensates with its big-city sense of fun, lively cultural scene (it’s proud of playing host to Germany’s only pop music academy) and decent shopping. Mannheim is famous for its quirky – indeed, unique – street layout.
