About

Würzburg is a city in the region of Franconia, Northern Bavaria, Germany. It lies at about equal distance between Frankfurt am Main and Nuremberg. Würzburg is full of intriguing contrasts: progress and tradition, a big-city buzz and countryside charm. Surrounded by vineyards, the city exudes an almost Mediterranean air. Würzburg’s most outstanding architectural treasure, the Residence Palace, has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1981 and doubles as a MICE venue of exceptional character. As a center of science and research and home to one of Germany’s oldest and most renowned universities, Würzburg has a long-established tradition of holding international meetings and conferences. Award winning museums, world-class wineries, and a wide range of cultural and music festivals allow for attractive social programs. Just an hour’s drive from Frankfurt airport, Würzburg sits at the crossroads of numerous German traffic routes and is easily reached from everywhere. Congress-Tourismus-Würzburg, the city’s CVB, manages four different conference venues with more than 20 function rooms for up to 1.600 persons and offers various PCO services. With 4.700 hotel beds and a vibrant nightlife fuelled by the city’s large student population Würzburg is the ideal location for successful meetings and events.
