Raise a glass and toast Würzburg, an enchanting, Franconian wine-producing area on the Main River, and one of Germany's oldest cities. Wine bars and cellars abound here, but there's also plenty of wonderful history and striking Baroque and rococo architecture to behold. The Würzburg Residence, a glorious palace, is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and visitors are encouraged to walk its gardens. Downtown, the rococo Falkenhaus, once damaged badly in WWII, now homes a library and tourism office. The Gothic Marienkapelle church is a must-see, as is the Alte Mainbrücke (Old Main River Bridge), which provides a stunning view of the cloud-touching ancient Fortress Marienberg.
