Heilbronn, Regional center in Baden-Württemberg, Germany

The city stretches along both sides of the Neckar River, surrounded by vineyards and bordered by the Swabian Forest hills.

The settlement received its free imperial city status in 1281, becoming an independent territory within the Holy Roman Empire.

The Astronomical Clock of 1580 at the Town Hall displays intricate mechanical engineering through its moving figures and time calculations.

The central harbor serves as a major transport hub connecting the Rhine-Neckar waterway network for cargo distribution across southern Germany.

A natural spring flows beneath the high altar of Saint Kilian's Church, giving the city its name which translates to 'holy spring'.
