Overview
Wine cellars under a prince-bishop's palace, saints lining a medieval bridge, and a crane that once ruled the river — Würzburg rewards anyone who looks closely, and this hunt makes sure you do.
This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Würzburg on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time.
• Inspect the Alter Kranen, the 18th-century twin harbour crane on the Main riverbank
• Cross the Alte Mainbrücke between its twelve towering saints, wine glass optional
• Face the Residenz, the UNESCO-listed palace with the world's largest ceiling fresco
Around 2 hours, any group size, available in German and English.
By the end, Franconia's wine capital will have poured out its best stories for you.

Our group went to visit Würzburg and the App was a great help to see other aspects of the city. We recommend it also for a short visit as it was ours! And the quizzes were really good as well.
