“We have to keep moving forwards, steadily and with confidence. Heidelberg exemplifies this perfectly. That’s why Heidelberg is a very unique and future-oriented location.

We are now continuing this approach with SkyAngle. Almost anything is possible here. Heidelberg and the Bahnstadt district are the ideal location for this. Here tradition and innovation go hand in hand.”
