Veitshöchheim

Veitshöchheim extends along the right bank of the Main River, featuring stone buildings, flower-lined streets, and a summer residence with formal gardens.

The Jagdschloss palace, constructed between 1680 and 1682, expanded to its current form in 1753 under the direction of architect Balthasar Neumann.

The municipality hosts the annual television broadcast 'Fastnacht in Franken' at Frankenhalle, presenting traditional Bavarian carnival performances each February.

The railway station near Schloss Veitshöchheim connects travelers to Würzburg, while river excursion boats provide alternative transportation on the Main River.

The garden features a structure made entirely of seashells called Schneckenhaus and a Pegasus sculpture on the lake constructed from snail shells.
