Wurzburg Walking Tour
Wurzburg, Germany
Why Walk Wurzburg
Wurzburg's Residenz, a baroque palace completed in 1744, contains the largest ceiling fresco in the world — painted by Tiepolo — and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Across the river, the Marienberg Fortress has overlooked the city from its hilltop since the 13th century. The city is the starting point of the Romantic Road and the heart of Franconian wine country, producing distinctive dry wines in traditional flask-shaped Bocksbeutel bottles.
