About Würzburg
A city of roughly 130'000 inhabitants, Würzburg is located in the north of Bavaria, about halfway between the technological city of Nürnberg and Germany's economic powerhouse, Frankfurt.
Founded more than 1300 years ago, it rose to significant importance in the German empire due to its location at important trade routes. Historic highlights include the 1796 Battle of Würzburg, the absorption into the Kingdom of Bavaria in 1814, and the 1997 Linux Kongress held in the Fortress Marienberg.
