The Bahnstadt quarter is not only one of the biggest urban development projects in Germany, it is also Heidelberg’s newest district – and soon to be the center of life for 6,800 people.

What makes living in the new quarter such an attractive prospect for them? Bahnstadt’s central location or its close sense of neighborhood? Well-planned infrastructure, innovative design or short distances within the district? It is probably a mix of all these factors that makes Bahnstadt so desirable.
