Nicknamed the "City of Squares", due to its distinctive grid network of avenues and streets, Mannheim is a UNESCO City of Music, home to a championship hockey team, and termed one of the most inventive cities in the world. Diesel engines, buses, and other vehicles are assembled here and the city's factories manufacture a variety of goods; particularly electrical goods. A number of breathtaking buildings dominate, but expats will soon be enjoying the Mannheimer Mess twice yearly festival, the fresh "Marktplatz" farmer's market, and the beautiful lakes and gondolettas of Luisenpark.

Get to know fellow internationals in your city, before you're moving, or when traveling somewhere and never feel like a stranger.
