The tower from the 13th and 15th centuries belongs to the Kurmainzisches Schloss, built around 1250, on the Schlossplatz. The eastern outbuildings of the palace from the 15th/16th Century are part of the former moated castle, of which 3 turrets are still standing. The tower tower (symbol of the city) has a total height of approx. 35 m, whereby the 28 m up to the summit is also the circumference. Inside there are 119 steps up to the tower room. The tower can be climbed as part of a guided tour and offers a wonderful view of the Tauber Valley and the town's incorporations.
A fountain with a toad forms the end of the castle courtyard in front of the mill canal. Here you can also see the remains of the city fortifications with part of the city wall and the hunger tower. Two cast-iron border pillars are reminiscent of modern times, one with the coat of arms of the Grand Duchy, the other with that of the Republic of Baden.

Tauberbischofsheim Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

Tauberbischofsheim is the district town of the Main-Tauber district and is famous for its historic old town. Of course, it also became known as a mecca of fencing. In the old town, the most interesting houses are grouped around the market square: the neo-Gothic town hall, the old post office and the Stern pharmacy, the Baroque palace, the Mackert's house, etc.

Almost always you can park at the sports field and quickly get on the bike path. So here in Distelhausen.

The baroque bridge over the Grünbach in Gerlachsheim was built between 1730 and 1740. It contains the statues of four bridge saints: St. Kilian, St. Burkard, St. Michael and St. Nepomuk.

Art can be argued, but it's fun to watch 😁.
