geography

Schlierbach

Schlierbach is about two kilometers east of Heidelberg's old town on the left bank of the Neckar . The core of the development is at the exit of the Schlierbach valley, which descends south to the Neckar, from the Königstuhl and stretches up the steep slope of the mountain to the west and east.

history

The place was first mentioned in 1245 and is named after the stream of the same name (v. Mhd. Slier - loam, mud). The original fishing and skipper village became the location of the orthopedic university clinic in 1918. Today the place is one of the upscale residential areas of Heidelberg. The Castle Wolfsbrunnenweg connects the Schlierbacher Wolfsbrunnen with the Heidelberg Castle .
