Well maintained place with friendly hospitality. Unfortunately there are no campsites directly on the Main. But it is nice to sit at the jetty and watch the ships go by.

The Jesuitensee is a body of water south of the municipality of Estenfeld. The lake is traversed by the Nägeleinsbach and forms a body of water south of the Weisse Mühle. In the course of the land reorganization, a biotope area was created. In the immediate vicinity there is a filled meadow area that is particularly used as a barbecue area. Due to its silting up and silting up and the heavy algae growth, the lake was reduced to a third of its original water surface and the mud was removed. Today the lake and the lakeshore serve as a wet biotope and water playground and is the eponym for the neighboring Estenfeld senior center. Source: https://wuerzburgwiki.de/wiki/Jesuitensee
