📍 Destination Overview
Würzburg, a Bavarian city on the River Main, is the start of the Romantic Road and heart of Franconian wine country. Marienberg Fortress crowns the hill, while the UNESCO-listed Residenz, famed for its frescoed staircase, is the centerpiece. Baroque statues line the Old Main Bridge beside vineyards, and the fertile valley and wines sketch an idyllic landscape.
