The Heidelberg Thingstätte is an open-air stage on the Heiligenberg near Heidelberg that was built during the Nazi era, ostensibly based on the model of ancient Greek theaters.

The foundation stone for the "Thingstätte Heidelberg" was laid on May 30, 1934, and on June 22, 1935 it was opened under the new name "Feierstätte Heiligenberg" by Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels. It played an important role in the Thing movement, which quickly became insignificant. After the complex lay idle in the post-war years, occasional events were held there again and the name "Thingstätte" was generally used again. Until 2018 it was mainly used for unofficial Walpurgis Night celebrations. The complex is a protected cultural monument.

If you hide the " NS regime " part, a great place.
