An important attraction there is the Mannheim Palace - the largest Baroque building of its kind and the second largest in Europe, just after the Palace of Versailles. Its richly decorated, impressive interiors are worth seeing.

Another of the city's symbols is a sandstone water tower from 1889 surrounded by a small park. Also worth a visit is the Baroque Jesuit church dating from the first half of the 18th century.
