Ochsenfurt, Medieval town in Würzburg district, Germany.

The municipality sits on the Main River's left bank, surrounded by agricultural fields and contains eight districts including Darstadt and Erlach.

During Richard I of England's return from the Third Crusade in 1193, the town served as a temporary detention location.

The Tückelhausen Charterhouse, established in 1138, now functions as a museum presenting exhibits about Carthusian monastic life and traditions.

The municipality maintains direct road connections to Würzburg, located 21 kilometers north, making it accessible for daily commuters and visitors.

The town operates one of Germany's largest sugar production facilities, continuing its long tradition of agricultural product processing.
