Juliusspital
A hospital and winery founded in 1576 and Germany's second-largest wine estate. Join a cellar tour or taste Franconian Silvaner in its tavern.
Founded in 1576 by prince-bishop Julius Echter, the institution still runs a hospital and nursing home, funded by income from its vineyards. The estate is Germany's second-largest wine estate and includes the famous Würzburger Stein vineyard. You can join a historical cellar tour with tasting (reservations required, with more bookings on weekends). Or simply dine at the tavern and order a bottle of Silvaner in the traditional flat bocksbeutel bottle. The Baroque courtyard and Rococo pharmacy are also worth a visit.
