To step into living history, come to Heidelberg!
With its world-famous castle, picturesque city center and Germany's oldest university, Heidelberg is brimming with beauty and scenes from times gone by. The city is not only legendary because of its unique splendor; it is also home to numerous institutions which enjoy high international standing, such as the university clinic and its schools of medicine and the humanities.
The romantic Heidelberg cityscape is always worth a trip, but it becomes even more spectacular as the backdrop for the Heidelberg Spring Concerts, the Castle Festival and Castle Illuminations. Then there is a rich array of museums and galleries with exhibitions that will thrill any visitor with an eye for art and culture.

Speyer, the old imperial city is situated on the left bank of the Rhine, boasts a Romanesque cathedral with six imposing towers and the finest and largest crypt in Germany. Four Holy Roman Emperors and four German Kings are buried in the impressive Royal Vault.

Bonjour Strasbourg!
Situated on the border of France and Germany, Strasbourg is influenced by the culture of both countries and is the capital of the Alsace region. It is the seat of the Council of Europe and the European Parliament. Noteworthy sights are the Gothic Cathedral, the lovely 'La Petite France' district, Place Kleber and Place Gutenberg with the statue of the inventor of the printing press.
With its characteristic distinctiveness and its time-old traditions, the Alsace is a region sure to be mentioned whenever the French talk about their wine, gastronomy, art, history and culture. This is a land of adventure, not so far away, a land of colour and warmth, with a surprise around every corner.

Gruezi Switzerland!
Whether from north to south or east to west, whether by car or by train, almost every path passes through Zofingen. Since the Middle Ages, Zofingen`s central location has laid the foundation for its vivacity and diversity. Those who take the time to visit the picturesque old town will unterstand the longing for Zofingen felt by many people in other parts of the world, and will themselves gladly return to Zofingen again and again…

Happy End on Lake Constance!
Situated at the 3-nation triangle Germany - Austria - Switzerland and surrounded by the Alps. Picturesque towns and places like Lindau, Constance, Mainau, Meersburg, Friedrichshafen and Bregenz are lined up on the shores of this romantic lake.

Munich - Magical Metropolis!
Big city flair and rural charm, Alpine heartiness and Mediterranean chic, art treasures and Oktoberfest, traditional customs and hi-tech, beer gardens and haute cuisine, opera and Art Park - it's this very special "Munich mix" that makes the Bavarian capital so attractive for visitors from all over the world. This is an endlessly new city that never loses its fascination.
