Marktheidenfeld, Municipality in Main-Spessart, Germany

The town extends across 37 square kilometers at the intersection of the Spessart sandstone region and the Muschelkalk agricultural landscape along the Main River.

Marktheidenfeld received its current name in 1649 to distinguish it from Heidenfeld Monastery near Schweinfurt, later becoming part of Bavaria in 1814.

The Franck-Haus, constructed in 1745, functions as an exhibition center presenting regional art collections and hosting cultural gatherings throughout the year.

The municipality maintains direct access to the A3 highway connecting Frankfurt and Nuremberg, with regular public transportation services operating within the region.

The district of Glasofen celebrates its heritage with an annual charburners' festival, while the town hosts dragon boat races on the Main River.
