Heidelberg’s palace, dated as far back as the 13th century, is a perfect representation of the Renaissance’s artistic and architectures. Sadly, some parts of the palace were ruined by the French invasion between the 17th and 18th centuries. Fast forward to this century. The partly destroyed castle attracts over a million visitors every year, and it’s one of the most popular destinations in Germany. #heidelberg #castle #renaissance #architecture #palace
