Journey through time in the Museum for Franconia
The Marienberg Fortress rises as a landmark above Würzburg and is just a shuttle bus ride from the Residenz or a walk up the hill from the old Main Bridge. The spacious building complex houses the Museum for Franconia, one of Bavaria's most important art collections.
Between vineyards, old walls and baroque gardens, the museum invites you on a journey of discovery into times gone by. Whether alone or with friends, you can discover special treasures here: the world's largest Riemenschneider collection with over 80 works by the medieval sculptor, the bronze cult chariot from Acholshausen or the paintings by Lucas Cranach the Elder. Ä. and Giovanni Battista Tiepolo.
Embark on a journey of discovery from prehistory to the 19th century, from painting to masterful arts and crafts. In the Prince's Building, which is located in the inner courtyard of the castle, you can discover the treasures of the Prince-Bishop and learn more about the history of Würzburg. It also offers one of the most magnificent views of the city.
Exciting special exhibitions and the museum festival on the first weekend in September regularly attract thousands of visitors to the museum at Marienberg Fortress. Bookable guided tours, workshops, holiday programs and children's birthday parties round off the program and make a visit to the museum a special experience.
