Würzburg — wine, Residenz, and Franconian start
Free PreviewWürzburg sits on the Main river with a UNESCO-listed baroque Residenz palace and vineyards climbing both banks. Cross the old stone bridge at sunset with a glass of Silvaner wine — the city's best free ritual. The Stellplatz "Am Schlachthof" is a 15-minute walk from the old town.
Practical Tips
• Stellplatz Am Schlachthof: €12/night incl. power, 40 places. Coin machine (bring €5 in €1/€2).
• Residenz: €9, closed Mondays. The staircase fresco is the largest in the world.
• Try a "Bocksbeutel" — Franconian wine in a flat round bottle. Sold at Bürgerspital in the old town.
• Main River bike path: follow downstream for a flat 20 km vineyard ride.
