Explore this website to get a glimpse into the world of Heidelberg in 1890, 1926, and 2009 and learn about why and how these name changes have occurred, and strengthen your knowledge of Heidelberg trivia!

A special thanks to Dr. Robert Berg and Mrs. Dorothy Berg down in the Heidelberg Archives. This project could not have been completed without their dedication to and encyclopedic knowledge of Heidelberg's history, and the work they do to preserve it for all of us.
