Wurzburg is on the banks of the Main River, along the "Romantic Road", a fascinating stop on many Rhine River and Main River cruises. In the heart of the biggest wine-producing region in Germany, Wurtzburg emanates Baroque culture, captured perfectly by the impressive Baroque Residenz Palace. This UNESCO World Heritage Site features a grand fresco by famed Italian artist Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. A hike to Marienberg Fortress, the most prominent landmark on the left bank of the Main River, is another option for active travelers. And no visit is complete without a wine tasting in the cellars underneath the city. Your time in Wurzburg is bookended by stops in other ancient German cities, like Bamberg, Wertheim, and Kitzingen.

Highlights of Wurzburg, Germany

Enjoy some time on your river cruise in the centrally located town of Wurzburg. As you travel the Main River to the much longer Rhine River, you will be immersed in the Baroque atmosphere of Wurzburg.

Don't miss out on sampling the local wines that are best tasted right where they are produced and aged, in the cellars beneath the city!

Active explorers will enjoy a hike to the expansive landmark Marienberg Fortress, one of the oldest buildings in all of southern Germany. 

And the main highlight is, of course, the UNESCO World Heritage Site: Residenz Palace, where Giovanni Battista Tiepolo's grand fresco is proudly displayed.
