Campus Tour

Heidelberg College is located on a 110-acre campus in Tiffin (population approx. 20,000), county seat of Seneca County and center of a prosperous agricultural, industrial and business area in northwestern Ohio. The main campus is located on the east side of Tiffin on College Hill. Heidelberg's tree-lined campus has large expanses of well-kept lawns and flowering shrubs. Classrooms, laboratories and other buildings are within easy walking distance in the time allotted between classes.

The old and new in architecture at Heidelberg blend harmoniously. From the pure Greek Revival lines of Founders Hall and the Victorian Gothic style of College Hall, the architecture moves toward the more modern English Gothic and to the functional style typified by Beeghly Library. In many of the buildings erected since 1907, gray Bloomville limestone, with cut Bedford stone for trim, gives a sense of unity to the various styles. Nine buildings ranging in age from 135 to 60 years are entered in the National Register of Historic Places.

We consider a campus visit an essential part of a prospective student's decision-making process. When a student visits campus, she or he will see that Heidelberg is one of the warmest, friendliest colleges around. Individual appointments for a prospective student and his/her family may be scheduled between 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday through Friday. The Admission Office should be contacted one week prior to the visit so we may adequately prepare for the student's arrival.
