Day 6 Dec 12, 2027 Wurzburg The Bavarian city of Würzburg with its impressive buildings in Baroque and Rococo styles is definitely worth a visit.

This is where the good Franconian wine comes from in Bocksbeuteln. The Würzburg Residence is a special attraction, as is the monumental Käppele pilgrimage church.

Basel also has eight churches with historical organs that still fill the naves with excellent music today. Go to Basel Cruises visiting Basel
