The Würzburg City Guides answer the questions every visitor has: which Weinstube serves Schäufele the way locals expect, how to see the Residenz before the coach groups arrive, where the best view of the fortress really is and which wine villages are only minutes away by train. Each guide is a short list with an opinion: why each place is worth it, what to order or look for and one practical tip, ready in your browser as soon as you pay.

Three places from the guides
Bratwurststand Knüpfing
Marktplatz, by the Marienkapelle
A family of butchers has run this market stand for generations. Order a grilled bratwurst in a crisp roll with mustard for about €3 and eat it standing, as Würzburgers do. From the food guide.
Fürstengarten
Inside the fortress, east outer ward
A small terraced garden of box hedges and a pavilion on the city side of the fortress, perched right above the vines. Find the door most visitors walk past and you get the best framed view of Würzburg. From the things to do guide.
Schloss Veitshöchheim
Veitshöchheim, 10 min by train or 45 min by boat
The prince-bishops’ rococo pleasure garden, with hedge mazes, some 200 stone animals and gods and a lake whose fountain plays on the hour in summer. The garden is free and the gravel paths suit pushchairs. From the family guide.
Play the game, then keep exploring
World City Trail’s Würzburg scavenger hunt, outdoor escape game and audio tour lead you through the old town. The guides take over when the game is done: a Brückenschoppen on the Alte Mainbrücke at sunset, dinner in a Weinstube, a boat to the rococo garden at Veitshöchheim or the €1 Sunday at the fortress museum.
