Miltenberg is a charming town on the Main, known for its well-preserved old town and picturesque location.
The half-timbered houses and narrow lanes in the historic old quarter will transport you back in time. Particularly worth seeing is the Schnatterloch, a picturesque market square.
From the medieval Miltenberg Castle, there is a fantastic view over the city and the river Main.
Miltenberg is located in a wine region, so what could be better than to try some local wines in a cozy wine bar. The Franconian cuisine is also worth trying.
The surrounding forests and the Main River are perfect for hiking, cycling and boat trips and offer numerous possibilities.

Miltenberg has a lot to offer culturally, with museums, galleries and regular events such as the Old Town Festival.
Miltenberg is the perfect choice for everything that makes the Spessart am Fluss (Spessart by the river) so unique. On the narrow ridge between the Odenwald and Spessart, between medieval past and progressive future, the city manages to span the arc in an inimitable way.
We start our walk at the Laurentiuskapelle. The overgrown cemetery around the building has its own flair.
From here we walk past the Mainz Gate until we reach the main street. The old town begins here in a very unspectacular way.
A walk through the town is like a journey into the past. Picturesque half-timbered houses, narrow lanes, hidden corners.
These are four selected highlights that you should discover on your walk.
Market Square :
This is the heart of Miltenberg, with magnificent half-timbered houses and the impressive Schnatterlochturm.
Black Quarter :
It's the oldest part of Miltenberg, where you can visit the local brewery Faust and learn how to brew beer.
Castle Mildenburg :
High above the old town, Mildenburg Castle is now a museum with a wide range of topics.
Zum Riesen Inn :
Germany's oldest royal inn, with a history stretching back to 1411. A place of great delights.
