Würzburg's Sacred Sites

Würzburg’s skyline is defined by its diverse religious architecture, ranging from the Romanesque Würzburg Cathedral to the late-Gothic Marienkapelle on the market square. The collection includes Balthasar Neumann’s Baroque masterpieces, such as the hilltop Käppele and the Schönbornkapelle. Significant historical sites like the former Benedictine St. Burkard’s Abbey and the city's first Protestant churches, St. Stephan and St. Johannis, reflect centuries of shifting theological and artistic traditions in Lower Franconia.
