Heidelberger Schlossfestspiele

The ruins of Heidelberg Castle are considered the most frequently visited castle ruins in Germany. Heidelberg Castle also houses Theater und Orchester Heidelberg's most beautiful stages: Schlosshof, Dicker Turm and Englischer Bau.

During the summer, these venues provide the backdrop for productions from all categories as well as gala concerts for the Heidelberger Schlossfestspiele festival.
