Würzburg Residence in Würzburg

Würzburg Residence

The Würzburg Residence is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is considered one of the most important baroque buildings in Germany. Planning began in 1720 and construction took several decades. Particularly noteworthy is the magnificent staircase, which immediately captivates visitors. Inside you will find the impressive Imperial Hall with one of the largest ceiling frescoes in the world, created by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo.

The grounds also include a spacious garden, which not only invites you to relax, but also offers fantastic views of the old town. The residence was once the residence of the prince-bishops of Würzburg and today offers insights into life and the power structure of the Baroque era.

A visit is worth it not only because of the architectural masterpieces, but also because of the exciting exhibitions and guided tours that tell you the history of this magnificent site. Allow enough time to explore both the interior and exterior at your leisure.
