The many historic places in Aschaffenburg and the great old town are highly recommended. Aschaffenburg is not called the Bavarian Nice on the Lower Main for nothing.

March 22, 2025,Aschaffenburg: Schlosspark, Pompejanum, Main, Schloss Johannisburg, Park Schöntal/Magnolienblüte, Innenstadt (Restaurants/Kneipen/Shopping-Meile) - Runde ab Parkhaus Luitpoldstraße, Aschaffenburg

A lovely 8km tour through Aschaffenburg offers a diverse program: culture/sights (Pompejanum/Johannisburg Palace), nature (Main riverbank/palace park - magnolia blossom), and restaurants/pubs/shopping (Treibgasse, Sandgasse, Herstallgasse, Roßmarkt, etc.).

We were probably a week too early (on March 22, 2025) to see the magnificent magnolia blossoms.
