The former Residence of the Prince Bishops in Würzburg is the most beautiful Baroque castle in southern Germany. Its perfect architectural harmony is fascinating; most of all the magnificent façade of yellowish sandstone, the number of splendid state rooms at the garden front, the unique staircase with the largest ceiling fresco in the world and the fantastic Imperial Hall, the heart of the complex.

This award-winning museum is located in a former granary right next to Würzburg's port. It houses the impressive Peter C. Ruppert collection of European Concrete Art after 1945 featuring works by Max Bill, Victor Vasarely, Bridget Riley and others. Additional collections include exhibits on the Age of Romanticism, the Biedermeier period, Impressionism, Expressionism and contemporary art.

Würzburg is the center of the Franconian Wine Country. The famous vineyard estates Bürgerspital zum Heiligen Geist, Juliusspital and Staatlicher Hofkeller all have attractive vinotheques where their excellent wines can be sampled.
