Mannheim; Saturday, 01 April, 2017

I had a long lie in and a late breakfast before heading out into town. I started off by having a wander down to the Neckar river, the other river that runs through the city centre, and had a long walk along the river bank.

By now I’d taken in much of the city centre, so I decided to catch a train and head out to the nearby Cathedral City of Worms to have a look round there.

It was a short 30 minute or so ride on the train out to Worms and then a short walk into the city centre and the very impressive Cathedral. I had a wander around the Cathedral gardens before heading inside the Cathedral for a look around.

After visiting the Cathedral I went for a wander through the city centre, unfortunately I’d mistimed it and I arrived at the old Synagogue just after they had closed for the evening so wasn’t able to look around that, but just around the corner were the old city walls so I was able to follow those for an interesting walk around part of the old city defences.

By now it was starting to get late so I headed back to the station and caught the train back to Mannheim where I went in search of dinner for the evening.
