Tubinga

A walk through the old town, which is of rare beauty among German cities, and along the Neckar (with the "Hölderlin Tower") is a real pleasure; during this walk you should not miss the romantic little island in the middle of the Neckar with the "Avenue of the Plane Trees."

Tübingen, the "city of the learned," named for the many famous names who attended the university (founded in 1477), is old and young at the same time: old because of the medieval image the city has managed to preserve, young because of the presence of many students (28,000 students out of 85,000 inhabitants) who choose Tübingen precisely because of the specific atmosphere here. The average age of Tübingen's inhabitants is 39. In terms of quality of life Tübingen is among the top ones in Germany!
