Germany: Mannheim

On 25th July I got a postcard from Germany.

It shows various views of Mannheim. Mannheim is a big city in the German State of Baden-Württemberg. It is the third largest city of its state and the twenty-second largest of Germany. The city is known as City of Squares, because its streets are laid out in a grid pattern. Mannheim is also considered to be one of the most inventive cities in the World, as the bicycle, the car and the rocket plane were invented there. Since 2014 is Mannheim a UNESCO City of Music.
I got this card a few weeks ago in a cover.


Stamp:
200 years Bicycle (issued 13-07-2017)
with a matching special postmark from Mannheim


Thank You very much Julia for sending me the card in an envelope!
