About this audio guide
This guide to Neuenheim, the Heidelberg quarter across the Neckar from the Old Town, follows a game the pupils of Neuenheim College were playing around eighteen fifty, and the dialect nickname the locals gave it. It turns up a teacher named Edward Hill Ullrich, a rowing club, and the district club that outgrew its own name. Best heard on the north bank, within earshot of the playing fields.
