Description
Some of you know this castle probably already from other photos. It's called "Tiefburg" and is located in the centre of "Handschuhsheim", the northernmost district of Heidelberg (where I live).
Some of you asked me after my recent upload, why there is a hand on the sundial. It is the armorial of "Handschuhsheim", which means translated "home of the glove". The name comes from the Middle Ages and has something to do with knights and gloves.
Thanks for viewing.
