Old Main Bridge, Marktheidenfeld

Highlight • Bridge

The motto of Marktheidenfeld is "There you go!". For that to be so, the city does a lot for your visitors. In the beautiful old town with its many half-timbered houses, many shops, cafes, restaurants and hotels invite you to linger.

A special experience is the stay in the Wonnemar, the Erlebnistherme in Marktheidenfeld. stadt-marktheidenfeld.de/kultur-tourismus

View of the vineyards along the Main Cycle Path

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Mainradweg is particularly impressive here. The river has dug deep into the landscape and the slopes offer the best conditions for good wine.

Homburg Castle on the Main

Highlight • Castle

Homburg Castle is primarily dedicated to art. There are chamber concerts and exhibitions and the artist Linda Schwarz is at home with her graphic workshop in another wing of the building. The former knight's castle has become an artistic gem.

Once a noble seat, later a place of jurisdiction - and now for almost 100 years in the hands of committed people who maintain the walls and keep their spirit.

Today it was dtl. fewer kilometers, but in adverse conditions. It all started with a flat tire that I couldn't fix myself. So "towing service" to the bike shop in Wertheim, where our now delayed but also shortened tour now began. The Maintalradweg was wonderful, unfortunately a long cold rain and later a strong headwind sapped our strength. All in …
