	German Engineering Tip Rating:

crane and ivy wall

by chodearm

Its a known fact that German Engineering is the utmost when it comes to quality. Beyond the fact that the machinery will hold up to the test of time, aesthetic value is still topping the list of design importance. Take for example this Crane, these black circles are totally unnecessary to function but yet left intact for the final product purely for visual stimulation. It works well!

ice cream on Marienbrucke

by chodearm

Momma told me to never stare. As a kid I had a tendancy to do so, differences grabbed and held onto all my attention. I was attracted to differences and picked apart things common and different. At two years old, words were gaining meanings, I pointed at a rather round man and said, "FAT". Embarassing the parents I just giggled with a smile scattering across my face one couldn't get angered at. My people staring hasn't quelled all that much, these days I still stare, I still glimpse, only now I solidify the stare with film.
This man had a perculiar look as he gorged the Ice Cream cone. I took him home in the 2-D.

	A great church Tip Rating:

church

by MEdelmann

Würzburg is a very unique and great baroque town located in the northern part of Bavaria.

Due to heavy bombings of the allied armies in World War II., W?rzburg was heavily destroyed. But there are still some wonderful buildings in the old town centre, like this beautiful church. Just go around and look ... and don't forget your camera ...

:-))

	Climb the hill to see Marienberg Castle Tip Rating:

Who Goes There?

by zrim

The old fortress guarding Würzburg is in excellant repair and worth an afternoon's visit. For those with tired legs, the castle is accessible by auto or bus. However, I found the walk up the hill through the vineyards past the old stone statues to be half the fun.

	City of Churches Tip Rating:

Everywhere Steeples

by zrim

Würzburg was ruled by the iron-fisted Prince-Bishops. These guys may have been tough, but they were also bishops, therefore, they demanded ample houses of worship. I found the cathedral and the other churches to be amazing places: from the far flung vaulted ceilings in the cathedral, to the baroque design of the Neumunster Church, to the creepy relics housed in subterranean recesses, to the delightful Marienkirche within the castle walls. Go see them all.

	Beautiful Residenz Tip Rating:

The Würzburg Residenz in the
winter

by Henkster

The Residenz in Würzburg is one of Germany's most impressive palaces. Surrounded by a beautiful garden. Something you may not expect in a small town like Würzburg, but this palace can keep up with the big ones in Europe.
The highlight of any visit to this town.

	Würzburg General Tips Tip (Untitled) Tip Rating:

By smoox on September 2, 2002

Würzburg Page by smoox

by smoox

Not so fond.... Wuerzburg got through the Second World War pretty well since it had been designated a hospital town. Well - on March 16, 1945, it happened. The town was practically wiped off this planet, with over 90% of its houses destroyed. The inner town was more destroyed than Dresden was. The gold treasure in the catacombs beneath the Dom melted because of the heat and only a big lump of gold could be recovered.....
BUT they have rebuilt the town. And not so badly. There are still many rather ugly buildings which had been constructed in a hurry, but the goodies have been restored carefully. - By the way: every year on March 16th, all the church bells in town ring in commemoration of the bombing.

	Have time to explore. This... Tip Rating:

Have time to explore. This town is beautiful. There is alot to see and do. Take a map, even a tour. Tours are nice for the history facts, but be sure to do your own things while here. If shoppings your thing, they have a nice shopping area. H&M anyone? Also McDondalds and other american food is easy access if your not in the mood for German. I recomend asking a local for the best place in town to eat. If your somewhere new, experiance it.

My school had a guided tour for us, than time for us to explore on our own. My fondest memory is running around the city with my friend from Brazil. Our German was terrible, and she spoke no english, and I speak zero portugese. So we had fun! We lost our map, and got lost but found so many cool places that rest of the group didnt. We met so many new people, and saw so many things. I just miss it all!

	Alte Mainbrücke Tip Rating:

Updated By Mandy23 on February 19, 2003

After having a look at the Marienkappelle, it were just a few metres to the Alte Mainbrücke (Old Bridge) which is adorned with the well-known statues of saints. You can see the Fortress from here.
