District
Südstadt
In transition - from a US barracks site to a creative quarter with a market hall, the Mark Twain Center and the Bahnstadt-Süd campus.
The Südstadt is Heidelberg's conversion quarter: on the grounds of the former Campbell Barracks a new district is taking shape, with a market hall, the Mark Twain Center and the University of Education. A mix of industrial monuments, new builds and creative interim uses - the Südstadt is the workshop for the next Heidelberg.
