The Residence Palace –<br />
A UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site<br />
Balthasar Neumann, Europe’s greatest architect of the Baroque<br />
era, built the Residence Palace. This former home of the prince<br />
bishops of Würzburg is nicknamed “the castle above all castles”.<br />
The grand staircase of the Residence Palace is deemed the most<br />
beautiful staircase in the world. Other renowned artists whose<br />
names are inextricably linked to this lovely city on the Main River<br />
are Tilman Riemenschneider and Giovanni Battista Tiepolo.<br />
Almost Like Hollywood But Real:<br />
The Towers Of Würzburg<br />
Würzburg is not a fake movie backdrop but a real, vibrant city.<br />
The view from the Fortress Marienberg across the many towers<br />
rising above the city – the cathedral, the Marienkapelle, the<br />
town hall, and the Käppele – is breathtaking and unforgettable.<br />

Hollywood was so impressed by the historical<br />
ambiance of the city; they filmed “The Three<br />
Musketeers” here in 2010, featuring Milla<br />
Jovovich, Orlando Bloom, and Christoph Waltz.<br />
