WÜRZBURG

Würzburg in summer
Würzburg is a great summer holiday destination, enthralling visitors with its rich history, breathtaking architecture and vibrant atmosphere. The city is picturesquely situated on the Main and is known for its baroque buildings, above all the Residenz, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A stroll through the Residenz’s Hofgarten or a visit to its magnificent rooms is a must for anyone interested in culture. The historic city centre, with its winding alleys, beautiful squares and impressive churches such as the Kiliansdom and the Marienkapelle, invites you to explore. The Old Main Bridge, lined with statues of saints, not only offers a magnificent view of the Marienberg Fortress, but is also a popular meeting place to enjoy the summer with a glass of Franconian wine. For those interested in culture, Würzburg offers a wide range of museums, concerts and festivals. Particularly popular are the summer concerts in the Hofgarten of the Residenz or the Africa Festival, the largest festival of African music and culture in Europe. Würzburg combines history, culture and enjoyment in a unique way – ideal for a summer holiday full of variety.
