Views of Würzburg
A few more views of Würzburg before I move on.
Here is a view of the city and the River Main, taken from the Festung Marienberg (Marienberg Fortress).
Here's the fortress, taken from the old town side of the river. Much of the city was leveled by Allied bombers during WWII, and the fortress was seriously damaged. They have worked hard to restore it.
The museum in the fortress had artifacts, carvings, and fine art from many centuries back. Here is a carving of the "Death of Mary."
And at the entrance to our hotel, we kept tabs on the mama and babies in the bird's nest each day. Nice serendipity.
