There are half-timbered houses en masse on the historic market square in Burgkunstadt. The small tower of the Burgkunstadt town hall rises above the roofs of the residential buildings at the very back. If you are interested in the history of the "shoe town on the Upper Main", the German Shoemaker's Museum is the right place for you. On three floors, you can get an insight into the artisanal and mechanical production of shoes.⁠
