    Even from a distance, the monumental Renaissance building with its striking towers is clearly visible. Built in the 17th century, it was used by the Archbishops of Mainz as a secondary residence. However, the original plant is likely to be much older, estimated to date from the 14th century. There are many stories about the castle, among others, the Swedish king Gustav Adolf intended to have the castle dismantled and to have it rebuilt in Sweden.
    Today it houses a museum and a restaurant, the chateau wine taverns.

      The massive four-wing complex of the 1614 completed castle Johannisburg is one of the most important palace buildings of the German Renaissance. Only a good 50 kilometers along the banks of the Main from the financial metropolis of Frankfurt, the castle is open to the public and offers in its museum, among other things, the world's largest collection of architectural models made of cork.
