Altstadt von Miltenberg am Main

The city of Miltenberg developed since the beginning of the 13th century in the protection of Mildenburg. The city prospered because the sandstone from the surrounding mountains was very much in demand among architects and could be easily shipped on the Main. The magnificent half-timbered buildings in the old town can tell you about it today. You can still visit a large part of the old city wall and its defense towers.

Old Town Hall Miltenberg, historical building

Miltenberg has a very nice old town. Many restaurants and ice cream parlors invite you to linger.

Beautiful old town with many half-timbered houses and a town hall from the 13th century
The gas house "Zum Giant" in the middle, you can not miss on a city visit, is the oldest gas house in Germany. At least it is advertised that way.

Miltenberg, a small town on the Main. If you have the opportunity, you should definitely visit this town.

Whether "Schnatterloch" marketplace or Schwarzviertel, in Miltenberg there is much to discover.

There are many old half-timbered buildings there.

Very great old town, always happy.

The central fountain in the market square used to be a simple water hole where the woman met for washing clothes and exchanging the daily gossip.
    Since that time it was called "Schotterloch" and the name has remained with the locals until today.

Worth seeing. Half-timbered houses, small shops, cafes and restaurants

Beautiful old town - if you are hungry and thirsty, be sure to stop by the inn "Zum Riesen"!

First mentioned in documents in 1237, the city can look back on an eventful history. Viticulture, wine trade, shipping, fishing, wood and stone industry were the most important growth engines in addition to trade and crafts. The convenient location on the old trade route Nuremberg-Frankfurt and the stacking law gave Miltenberg early economic prosperity. In the early 19th century, however, the city lost its central location in the spa state of Mainz and was from then on the edge of the Kingdom of Bavaria. The big phases of urban development were over and so the medieval cityscape could be preserved until today.

Nice marketplace and many cafes, restaurants and shops. Highly recommended

The historic market square is for me the highlight of Miltenberg.
Here at Brunne, the Schnatterloch, the opening scene and the final sequence of the classic: The Tavern in Spessart were filmed.
Dear audience ... a small donation for me and my animals?
I'll tell you the story, from the beautiful Spessartwald

The old town of Miltenberg I particularly liked with its half-timbered houses and the beautiful atmosphere.
