Description

Experience an atmospheric Advent tour through Würzburg: toast with Franconian sparkling wine on the Old Main Bridge, taste cookies and gingerbread, listen to stories, and enjoy mulled wine at the Christmas market.
Würzburg shows its festive side during Advent: On the Old Main Bridge, we toast with Franconian sparkling wine or non-alcoholic Secco and enjoy the atmospheric view of the festively illuminated Marienberg Fortress and the Käppele.

Then our path leads through the winter-decorated old town, accompanied by sweet cookies and gingerbread. Together, in a small group of no more than twelve adults, we'll set off in search of contemplative places and stop at the cathedral and Neumünster, where we'll hear stories about Franconian Christmas customs and learn how people celebrated Christmas in the Middle Ages and the Baroque period. The festive finale is mulled wine or punch at the Christmas market.

A tour with heart, history, and enjoyment - accompanied by experienced guides with a love for the city.
