In September I will be in Heidelburg.

I know Gen. Patton was injured in Heidelburg.
He died a few weeks later.

Does anyone know the location or intersection
of the accident?

This is the best I can do from the following source:

Hull, Michael D. "The Last Days of General Patton." WWII History. April 2020: 8. Available "The Last Days of General Patton." Warfare History Network. https://warfarehistorynetwork.com/artic ... al-patton/

Patton was on a pheasant hunting trip General Gay arranged to try to lift Patton's spirits. I recommend the article. The most relevant section to your question, with hints as to where the accident may have occurred, is as follows.

At about 11:45 that morning, the hunting trip came to an abrupt and fateful end. An approaching, slow-moving two-and-half-ton truck driven by Technician 5 Robert L. Thompson, about to enter a nearby quartermaster depot, suddenly turned left in front of the Cadillac. He gave no signal, according to Sergeant Woodring and General Gay. Woodring slammed on the brakes and veered left, but the two vehicles collided. The front end of the limousine was crushed. The two drivers and Gay suffered only cuts and bruises, but Patton was thrown forward awkwardly into the Cadillac’s overhead ceiling light and steel-and-glass partition. His nose and neck were broken, most of his scalp was peeled from his head, and his spinal cord was damaged. He was bleeding profusely and unable to move, yet conscious.
The Army’s 130th Station Hospital in Heidelberg, 25 miles away, was alerted by radio, and Patton was rushed there by ambulance. Carried in on a litter about an hour after the accident, he was given blood plasma, penicillin, and a tetanus shot.

Thx. I thought the accident happened in H-burg.

I guess the actual location is lost to history.
