Tour of Würzburg

Würzburg is jokingly called a spicy city or a city with a twist.
This is how the word Würze is translated into Russian. And indeed, there are enough highlights and treasures of world scale. Würzburg is considered one of the oldest cities in Germany, it is 1300 years old. Many people go to Würzburg specifically to visit the main Baroque landmark of the whole region - the episcopal residence. It is not only the most important architectural work of South German Baroque, but is also considered one of the most beautiful palace complexes in all of Europe. Above the tiled roofs of the city stands the fortress Marienberg, which we will definitely visit. The city is decorated with the ancient Mainsky Bridge, with an old water mill attached to it, the majestic Cathedral of St. Kilian, the building of the Old University, the Red Church of the Virgin Mary, at the facade of which witches and other numerous monuments of sacred architecture were burned in the 17th century. Pilgrims from all over the world come to the Chapelle Church for healing. Friedrich Barbarossa celebrated his second wedding. It was here that physicist Wilhelm Röntgen discovered the rays. Strange things have happened in the city. The legend of the Würzburg vampires has, strangely enough, documentary evidence. On the steep slopes around the city from time immemorial there are numerous vineyards. Fragrant French wine is known far beyond the city. It is said that Elizabeth of England herself receives light white wine from Würzburg to the palace table.
