The Bahnstadt – Research, living, work – A new district comes into being (10230)

The extent to which the university and the science, research and education sectors have helped shape the city’s distinctive complexion over the centuries can be seen in Heidelberg‘s history, townscape, architecture and also in numerous new projects. Today, the structure and image of the city are inextricably linked with scientific developments. These developments are particularly visible in Heidelberg’s newest district, the Bahnstadt. It is one of the world’s largest passive housing areas and relies on innovative solutions to combine environmental protection, attractive living space and optimal infrastructure.
