The world’s densest brewery country, Franconian wine and old towns from Bamberg to Würzburg.
Franconia has more breweries per head than anywhere on earth, and Bamberg — a UNESCO old town — smokes its malt for Rauchbier. Würzburg answers with its Residence and the wine of the Main valley in round Bocksbeutel bottles, Nuremberg with its castle and Christmas market, and Bayreuth with the opera house Wagner built for himself.
