What you'll see
The city museum in a baroque town palace on the main street: Roman finds, a carved medieval altarpiece, paintings of the romantic ruin, and a cast of a very old human jawbone found nearby.
A brief history
The jaw, found in a sandpit near Heidelberg in 1907, gave its name to an early human species, Homo heidelbergensis.
