Overview

  • Discover the soul of a city that refuses to be defined only by its destruction. This Red Thread Tour takes you through Heilbronn, a place where centuries-old wine culture clashes with the cool, pragmatic architecture of post-war reconstruction. You follow the physical and emotional scars of the devastating bombing raid of 1944 and simultaneously discover the deep, resilient roots that made the city's reconstruction possible.
