    The Schenkenturm is the preserved keep of the former Roßberg Castle near Würzburg, built in 1275 and destroyed in the Peasants' War of 1525. Starting in 1879, the tower was restored and opened as an observation tower. Today, it is open on Sundays from April to October and offers sweeping views over the Dürrbach Valley to Marienberg Fortress. The Würzburg-Schenkenturm airfield is located nearby. The complex is maintained by the Schenkenschloss Association; a small knights' hall and a tavern complete the historic ensemble.
