विवरण

Explore the most interesting sights of Würzburg including the Würzburg Residence, the Court Garden, Würzburger Cathedral, and the Falcon House which is an iconic building located in the downtown.
Start your tour at the court garden which was built in 1613–1617 by Maximilian I, Elector of Bavaria as an Italian style Renaissance garden. In the center of the garden is a pavilion for the goddess Diana, built in 1615 by Heinrich Schön the elder. Here, you will also find a path that leads from each of the eight arches. On the roof of the Diana pavilion is the replica of a sculpture of Bavaria by Hubert Gerhard, created in 1623. The original garden is in the Kaisersaal of the Residenz.

Next, you will be visiting The Würzburger Residenz, a very famous landmark. Balthasar Neumann, court architect of the Bishop of Würzburg, was the principal architect of the Residence, which was commissioned by the Prince-Bishop of Würzburg Johann Philipp Franz von Schönborn and his brother Friedrich Carl von Schönborn in 1720, and completed in 1744.

As we continue, you will see the Schönborn Chapel is a necropolis of the Schönborn family . It is at the end of the north transept of the Würzburg Cathedral. The Work began in 1721 and in 1723, Balthasar Neumann took part in the project. The structure was ready in 1724. The chapel was consecrated in 1736.

Your next destination will be the Würzburg Cathedral which is a Roman Catholic cathedral, dedicated to Saint Kilian. With an overall length of 103 meters, it is the fourth largest Romanesque church building in Germany, and a masterpiece of German architecture from the Salian period. The cathedral was heavily damaged by British bombs in March 1945 but rebuilt post-World War II.

Finally, you will visit the Falkenhaus which is an iconic building in downtown Wurzburg with a bright yellow rococo facade. The building was severely damaged during World War II, before being reconstructed using old photos to match its historic appearance. This 18th-century guesthouse today contains the tourism office and the municipal library.
