Heidelberg: open to the world
Heidelberg is a cosmopolitan city that is home to around 160,000 people of about 180 nationalities, including almost 56,000 with a migration background. Heidelberg has a real culture of welcome and acceptance, so even though the city’s population is becoming more diverse all the time, people feel at home here. For every citizen to participate equally in society, everyone needs make a contribution: from those whose families have always lived in Heidelberg, to those who have just arrived from abroad, as well as the City Council, the city administration, and the city’s public and private partners.
