Altstadt, Heritage monument ensemble in Iphofen, Germany

The medieval center of Iphofen features narrow streets enclosed by a 13th-century wall system, traditional buildings, and a central marketplace with a baroque town hall.

The area received city rights in 1293 from Bishop Manegold von Neuenburg, who ordered extensive fortifications that transformed Iphofen into a regional economic center.

The Knauf Museum, housed in the first baroque building of Iphofen, displays 205 replicas of significant artworks from international museums and hosts yearly exhibitions.

The Vinothek, located in a protected two-story building, functions as a center for tourism, culture, and wine presentation with dedicated seminar spaces.

The Aegidian Court stands as the oldest structure in Iphofen, confirmed through dendrochronological research, and belonged to the Benedictine monastery of St. Aegidius in Nuremberg.
