Center, Univ. of Texas at Austin Lines: 13 In the cellar of the castle of Heidelberg in SW Germany (my hometown), some crazy duke had himself a wine-barrel built, so huge, that on top he held parties. Room enough for band, tables and dance-floor for your friendly neighborhood blast. Ah, the good old times .... Today, only a few rare Arab princes have similar tendencies. The tourist gets to visit the party-area on top of the barrel, but no 'insights' are possible. I doubt that there is still any wine stored inside, so if anyone has plans to film Pinocchio, this might make a great location for the shots "inside the whale".
