    Not sure I want to see a couple of those although, they do sound interesting.

    Great resource list – I was born in Kitzingen and hope to visit that area one day. I’ll certainly file your list away for future reference. Thank you!

    That is a very cool list. I think I like the Beautiful Fountain and the Craftsmen's Courtyard the best. I would definitely go to Craftsmen's Courtyard–fresh baked gingerbread?!!! Mmmmmm!

    You live in a really great city! So much history. Thanks for posting this!

    I love the castle picture at the top. It's gorgeous. Looks like some worthwhile, albeit sad, places to visit.

    Thanks for your comments.
    Yes, we have a lot of interesting places to see, not all of them pleasant, but worth seeing nonetheless.

    Carin, we are the gingerbread capital, did you know that? We have lots of gingerbread factories where you can buy the stuff all year round. Come September you can smell the scent all over the place.
