What is the Heidelberg Autumn?

It is an open air event. It is also called family autumn, because there are also many oppor­tu­ni­ties locally to stroll with the child­ren, for exam­ple, in the streets of the old town.

Bes­i­des the street fes­ti­val, people can also visit the stores in the city on Sunday and buy things. Most of the stores are in the main street.

The fes­ti­val in the old town of Heidelberg is well known in the Rhine-Neckar region.
