Travel

If you consider to extend your visit, the region offers a good number of historic towns within easy reach: Bamberg (UNESCO world heritage), 50km; Bayreuth (town of Wagner festivals) in 70-80km; Regensburg 100km; W?rzburg, 100km ... plus many smaller towns in Franconian Switzerland or the Franconian Lake District.
