Würzburg

A Bavarian city on the Main surrounded by vineyards, its baroque Residenz palace and fortress overlooking a river valley that has made wine and tourism central to its identity. A university and a large hospital complex, alongside food and beverage manufacturing, round out an economy that leans more on services than industry.
