Where is Heilbronn Germany?? Is this a town, city , state? Where can I find a map or a picture?

Question

I've been trying to find information about this because my mom was born in Heilbronn. She came to the states when she was a toddler. I'm trying to get information because we are both curious about her birth place. We are also trying to get a copy of her birth certificate. Can you help us? I've been to a bunch of websites. Apparently not the right ones because I haven't found what I've been looking for.

Answer 1

Heilbronn[hIlbrOn´] Pronunciation Key, city (1994 pop. 122,400), Baden-WUrttemberg, S Germany, a port on the Neckar River. A commercial and industrial center, its manufactures include metal products, machinery, and wine. Heilbronn was the site (early 9th cent.) of a Carolingian palace and in the 14th cent. became a free imperial city. Although it suffered in the wars of the 16th cent., particularly in the Peasants' War, the city rose to great commercial prosperity in the late 16th and early 17th cent. In 1802, Heilbronn passed to WUrttemberg, and later in the 19th cent. it acquired industrial importance. In World War II (especially 1944) much of the city was destroyed, but many of its historic buildings have been reconstructed. Points of interest include the church of St. Kilian (13th–15th cent.) and the GOtzenturm, a tower built in 1392, which is mentioned in Goethe's drama GOtz von Berlichingen (1772).
