The lavish gates to the beautiful gardens of the Residence.

   
Garden view of the Würzburg Residence. Another section of the Residence castle park. Assorted garden flowers. We stop for lunch at the Alter Kranen restaurant patio After lunch we walk along the river.  It's the Main, the same river that flows through - Frankfurt.  Atop the hill is the Marienburg Fortress, where we will have our second tour at 3 pm.

A view of the River Main from the bridge with the Fortress on the hill. We arrive at the Marienburg Fortress, which the Celts began to build in the year 1222. - It was heavily damaged during World War II and not fully restored until 1990.
