Würzburg (about 30 km)
Würzburg became world famous for the residence with a baroque court church and court garden, which has been already appointed in 1981 to the World Cultural Heritage. In addition to this architectural masterpiece of Balthasar Neumanns, there are of course countless attractions. The Kilians Cathedral, the Marienkapelle or the fortress Marienberg, the symbol of the city that towers far above the roofs of the city, just to name a few.
Würzburg, the old episcopal city, is famous for its more than 58 churches. On the Nikolausberg, opposite the fortress Marienberg, the Käppele, the Baroque pilgrimage church, nestles close to the rocks. From here you have a magnificent view over all Würzburg: The Main as a dividing line, from right-Main and left-Würzburg with the old Main Bridge as a transition. Here you have the most beautiful photo opportunities with the bridge saints at the back. Right next door is the old crane. This masterpiece of engineering used to unload ships.
Würzburg is an old baroque town: It was shaped by the prince-bishops of the Schönborn family, who over three generations managed the fortunes of the prince-bishopric of Würzburg.
Their burial place, the Schönbornkapelle is cultivated at the cathedral.
