Experience Würzburg's Town Hall Up Close
The public town hall tour in Würzburg opens a view on more than 700 years of city history. On Saturday, October 31, 2026, the tour will take you through historical rooms, recount the reconstruction after 1945, and connect architecture, cultural remembrance, and the present into a unique event experience.
History That Becomes Tangible in Space
The starting point in the town hall courtyard opposite the Four-Tub Fountain sets the tone for this tour: medieval substance, urban identity, and an ambiance that immediately draws you into the atmosphere of the old Main City. The memorial room for March 16, 1945, adds depth to the tour and makes the historical transformation of Würzburg directly tangible.
Wenzelsaal, Wappensaal, and Meeting Hall as Highlights
The journey becomes particularly impressive as you pass through the Wenzelsaal, one of the oldest Romanesque secular spaces in Germany. Afterwards, the Wappensaal focuses on the city's reconstruction, before the monumental painting by Wolfgang Lenz in the new meeting hall bridges to the present. This mix of monument, urban storytelling, and modern usage makes the tour exciting for culture enthusiasts as well as for guests discovering Würzburg for the first time.
