Picturesque monastery that “perches” above the wine town of Großheubach – after a tour of the church and monastery garden, it’s worth taking a detour to the tavern for a monastery beer. :-)

The panorama of Miltenberg, the pearl of the Main, is an absolute highlight that you absolutely have to photograph.

Combining the useful with the practical. I was in the area for an appointment and took advantage of the wonderful weather.
The 619 angels' steps up to the monastery were like a visit to the sauna in this weather, but the apple spritzer in the monastery garden was really nice. And in Miltenberg there is a festival with a gigantic …

Today we went to picturesque Miltenberg am Main, which has sights such as the historic old town, Mildenburg, Löwenstein Castle (kleinheubach.de/kultur/schloss/155.Schloss-Loewenstein.html) (Kleinheubach) and the Franciscan monastery Engelberg (Großheubach) with monastery tavern (kloster-engelberg.com/) located on the southernmost foothills of the Spessart (especially the Kreuzberger monastery beer served here is recommended). The sights can be conveniently packed into a manageable round trip, …

An absolutely beautiful and varied tour in and around Miltenberg. A great historic old town! The ascent to the monastery with over 600 steps is the longest stone staircase in Bavaria. The monastery tavern is highly recommended. Tasty beer and good food at a fair price. It was nice

Spent a weekend with friends in Miltenberg, which is a real eye-catcher with its magnificent half-timbered houses, cafés, brewery/Bräustüble, beautiful shops, castle and much more, and of course the wonderful location right on the Main. From there we made our way to Engelberg Monastery. If you don't want to climb the 612 steps up there, you can also avoid them …
