Kärcher hat im Rahmen seines Kultursponsorings einen Grossteil des Frankoniabrunnens an der Würzburger Residenz gereinigt.
Das harte Würzburger Wasser hatte über die Jahrzehnte zu millimeterdicken Kalkschichten auf den Figuren geführt, wodurch auf den ersten Blick kaum erkennbar war, dass die Figuren aus Bronze bestehen. Darüber hinaus hatte sich organischer Bewuchs auf den Kalksteinelementen des Brunnens angesiedelt. Die Reinigungsarbeiten gingen der Restaurierung des Brunnens voraus.

The Fürstengarten on the bulk of the old military position of the east side of the fortress Marienburg was built as a garden in the earlier 16th. century. The artistic terraces with its magnificently balustrades and also the both cascade Fountains came out of the time of the Prince Bishop Johann Philipp von Schönborn (1642-1673). From this garden you will have an wonderful view over Wurzburg and its landscape.
TheFürstenbau is surrounded by medieval fortifications (walls and towers), enclosing an outer ward known as Scherenbergzwinger (actually built under Bishop Otto von Wolfskeel). To the east this includes the Fürstengarten, a formal Baroque garden facing the city. Entrance to the inner castle is via the Gothic Scherenbergtor.
The Gardens at Marienburg Fortress are small, perhaps half a football field if that but still make for a nice change of pace and add to the variety of scenery at the fortress. First you have to go through an inconspicuous passage next to the chapel to get to the garden, but then you will be honored by one of the best views over the City.

The Capuchin monastery Würzburg is a former monastery of the Capuchins in Würzburg in Bavaria in the Diocese of Würzburg. The St. Kilian and St. Francis consecrated monastery in today's Kapuzinerstraße was founded in 1615 by Julius Echter of Mespelbrunn , Bishop of Würzburg. It was dissolved in 1803 during the secularization .
The Würzburg-based Capuchin Convent recently resided on the Nikolausberg in the former hospice at the Church of the Visitation , commonly known as the Käppele , built in 1748 in the Baroque style by Balthasar Neumann . There he took care of the local pilgrimage since 1749 . In contrast to the monastery dissolved in the city center in 1803, the Capuchins on the Käppele (as well as three other mendicant monasteries in Würzburg) were spared from secularization.
In March 2014, it was announced that the Capuchins, after 260 years, the Käppele leave in mid-October of the same year. On 19 October, the three remaining Capuchins adopted a festive service from Käppele. The building and the plot are to be sold to the diocese of Würzburg

Places to see in ( Wurzburg - Germany ) Veitshochheim Schloss
The Veitshöchheim Castle is a former summer residence of the Prince-Bishops of Würzburg , later the kings of Bavaria , in Veitshöchheim near Würzburg. The castle complex is known for the surrounding Rococo garden. The beginnings of the castle are attested on the ground floor, where in 1680-82 a hall with five arches of the archbishops of Würzburg was preserved. It served as protection after the hunt. The two-storey building today still bears the four oriel risalits of the older building. The architect Antonio Petrini and certainly the foreman Heinrich Zimmer were probably involved in the construction. Later, there was an extension to two window axes and a representative upper floor, which were limited by four corner turrets. In 1753, Balthasar Neumann gave the building its current appearance: it built side pavilions , vaulted the whole with the distinctive sweeping roof and added a prestigious staircase inside.
From baroque time come all the floors; Baroque interiors have also been preserved, which adorn a wing of the upper floor: a dining room with games tables, a billiard room, a study, a living room, a bedroom with a retiro, which has a later equipment. In all rooms there is still the original stucco by Antonio Giuseppe Bossi . The silk wall coverings were largely reconstructed in Lyon according to original patterns, only in the living room still hangs the original wall covering in the rare Ikat technique.
There is a chapel in the staircase. The stucco altar decorated with fantastic color transitions was also created by Antonio Bossi. A convertible prayer chair has been preserved. The original goatskin wallpaper with embossed print and gold ornaments was outsourced to protect against moisture. Also a small kitchen can be found there, which was intended for serving food.
Since the 16th century, two castles can be found in Veitshöchheim, with an enclosure for pheasants and probably red deer. In 1681, Prince-Bishop Peter Philipp von Dernbach had land purchased to expand this High Prince Thier Garten. 1680/82, the core of today's castle was built. In 1702/03, Johann Philipp von Greiffenclau made the Fasanerie a pleasure garden: the dernbachsche Schlösschen was prepared and converted into a summer house, it received a ground floor , the area to the south became a tree or Boskettgartentransformed with the Great Lake. 1748/49, the old water castle were laid down and replaced by a Cavalierbau and other economics buildings. The heavily run-down garden was - while maintaining the planning of 1702 - by Carl Philipp von Greiffenclau brought in proper state. His successor Prince-Bishop Adam Friedrich von Seinsheim initiated in 1763 - after the end of the Seven Years' War - the redesign of the garden. He was now in lavish abundance with wells , about 300 sandstone sculptures of the court sculptors Johann Wolfgang van der Auvera , Ferdinand Tietz and Johann Peter Wagner and numerousWater features and is one of the few plants in the French rococo style in Germany, which are still preserved. Other elements include hedge halls, arbors , pavilions and rondels, as well as artificial ruins . The grotto complex is similar to that in the Boboli garden of the Palazzo Pitti in Florence ; It was designed by Johann Philipp Geigel and Materno Bossi .

Wurzburg, Germany Highlights Two
Würzburg is a city in the region of Franconia, Northern Bavaria, Germany. Located on the Main River, it is the capital of the Regierungsbezirk Lower Franconia. The regional dialect is Franconian,
Würzburg lies at about equal distance (120 kilometer, or 75 miles) between Frankfurt am Main and Nuremberg. Although the city of Würzburg is not part of the Landkreis Würzburg, i.e. the county or district of Würzburg, it is the seat of the district's administration. The city's population is 133,501 as of 31 December 2008.
On 16 March 1945, about 90% of the city full of civilians (and military hospitals) was destroyed in 17 minutes by 225 British Lancaster bombers during a World War II air raid. All of the city's churches, cathedrals, and other monuments were heavily damaged or destroyed. The city center, which dated from medieval times, was totally destroyed in a firestorm in which 5,000 people perished.
Over the next 20 years, the buildings of historical importance were painstakingly and accurately replicated. The citizens who rebuilt the city immediately after the end of the war were mostly women – Trümmerfrauen (rubble women) – because the men were either dead or taken prisoner of war. In comparison, Würzburg was destroyed to a larger extent than was Dresden in a firebombing the previous month.
On April 3, 1945, Würzburg was attacked by the US 12th Armored Division and US 42nd Infantry Division in a series of frontal assaults masked by smokescreens. The battle continued until the final German resistance was defeated on 5 April 1945.
After the war, Würzburg was host to the U.S. Army's 3rd Infantry Division, 1st Infantry Division, U.S. Army Hospital and various other U.S. military units that maintained a presence in Germany. The U.S. units were withdrawn from Würzburg in 2008, bringing an end to over 60 years of U.S. military presence in Würzburg.

From our 2016 trip to Europe.
St. Kilian’s Cathedral, completed in 1188, is Romanesque with Gothic spires and Baroque additions. Destroyed in WW2, it was rebuilt in the 1960s combining elements of the old and the new. The cathedral is named for a 7th century Irish monk who came to Würzburg with his colleagues, Kolonat and Totnan, as missionaries, converting the local Duke and spreading the gospel throughout Franconia. However Kilian’s subsequent criticism of the Duke’s marriage to his brother’s widow so angered the Duke’s wife that she had him and his two colleagues beheaded in the Duke’s absence. The incident recalls a similar biblical episode when John the Baptist was beheaded for criticizing Herod’s marriage to his brother’s widow. The skulls of the three Irish monks are within the Cathedral's altar. Lining the nave are standing tombs of prince bishops dating back centuries. One of particular note is that of the 15th c. prince bishop Rudolph von Scherenberg, carved by Tilman Riemenschneider. Scherenberg ruled until he was 94, and Riemenschneider broke with tradition by carving him accurately in his full maturity. The next prince bishop, whose tomb is to the right of Scherenberg’s, was so unsettled by the unflattering image of his predecessor that he insisted on a more traditional idealized portrait of himself, also done by Riemenschneider. In the courtyard outside the church (Kilianplatz) is a statue of Saint Kilian, and nearby, embedded in the side of the church is the tombstone of Reimenschneider, placed here when the church cemetery was moved.
On the opposite side of Kilianplatz is the even older Neumünster Basilica. This 11th c. Romanesque basilica is on the site where the three Irish monks were martyred. We see them looking down on us from the church façade, with Kilian giving us his blessing. The church received a huge dome and sandstone Baroque façade in the 1700s, and the interior is similarly decorated in bubbly Baroque stucco. The late-Gothic Human Hair Crucifix suspended above the choir is from the period in the late 15th c. when real hair was used to enhance the sense of realism. The medieval Schmerzensmannkreuz (Man of Sorrows Cross, c. 1350) depicts Christ with his arms uncharacteristically freed from the cross. The church’s crypt (the Kiliansgruft) contains the bones of the three Irish martyrs, now housed in a 20th c. bronze shrine atop a 13th c. altar. Here also are several 8th c. sarcophagi, one of which formerly contained Kilian’s body (the Kilianssarg with the painting of Christ above it).
Built in 1133, the Alte Mainbrücke (the Old Main Bridge) is the 2nd oldest in Germany. “Main” refers to the Main River which it spans. The 12 statues lining the bridge represent various prince bishops and saints, including Saint Kilian, the figure with a golden sword. On the hill in the distance, we see the Festung Marienberg, the town’s 13th c. fortress. This was the original home of the prince bishops until they moved to the Residenz Palace in the 1700s. We had lunch at the Alte Mainmühle, a restaurant in a converted mill adjoining the bridge.
We passed a fanciful fountain en route to the Marienplatz, the town’s main market square which is home to a bustling produce and flower market. In the middle of the square is Marienkapelle. This late-Gothic church wasn’t funded by Rome -- it was the people’s church -- so to bankroll it, the chapel was ringed with little businesses called “swallow shops” because they resemble swallow’s nests huddled up against a house. At the main entrance to the church are Reimenschneider’s celebrated Adam and Eve statues, flanking a portal depicting the Coronation of Mary. Above the door at the West portal is a Last Judgment scene, where the commoners who funded this chapel made sure that even bishops, kings, and fine ladies faced judgment, some going to heaven, others in the chain gang being led off to hell via the monster’s mouth. At another entrance, we see the Annunciation as the angel Gabriel gives the good news to Mary, her virginity symbolized by the lilies, as God whispers through a speaking tube with the tiny figure of the baby Jesus sliding down toward Mary’s ear. The interior has some interesting statues and a large suspended crucifix.
The Residenz became the new home for the prince bishops in the 18th c. when they moved down from the Marienberg Fortress. In front of it is the Frankoniabrunnen, a 19th c. fountain celebrating three great citizens of Würzburg: medieval woodcarver Tilman Riemenschneider, Renaissance painter Matthias Grünewald, and the 12th c. poet Walther von der Vogelweide. A fabulous Baroque chapel adjoins the Residenz but photography was not permitted. The adjoining Hofgarten provides a peaceful retreat.
The video concludes with several still photos from our visit.
3D Reconstruction of the Residenz Fountain at Wurzburg
258 input images of 3648x2736 (10 Mpix) resolution were used to reconstruct the fountain in our RealityCapture software. Compact camera IXUS 85is was used to capture the images. The full-resolution images were automatically aligned in 6 minutes. Final complete, accurate, and seamless mesh consists of 80 957 963 triangles and 40 563 718 vertices. The mesh was automatically reconstructed in 2h:14m on Core i7, 32GB RAM, and GTX 780 machine. High quality mode was used to reconstruct the mesh.

Places to see in ( Wurzburg - Germany ) St Kilian Cathedral
Würzburg Cathedral is a Roman Catholic cathedral in Würzburg in Bavaria, Germany, dedicated to Saint Kilian. It is the seat of the Bishop of Würzburg and has served as the burial place for the Prince-Bishops of Würzburg for hundreds of years. With an overall length of 103 metres, it is reckoned to be the fourth largest Romanesque church building in Germany, and a masterpiece of German architecture from the Salian period. Notable later additions include work by Tilman Riemenschneider and Balthasar Neumann. The cathedral was heavily damaged by British bombs in March 1945 but rebuilt post-World War II.
The present cathedral was built from 1040 onwards by Bishop Bruno of Würzburgis. It likely was the third church on the site: the previous two, built in about 787 and 855, were respectively destroyed and severely damaged by fire. After Bruno's accidental death in 1045, his successor Adalbero completed the building in 1075. Due to several rebuildings, notably after 1133, the cathedral was only consecrated in 1187. This church already had the strong cross lay-out still present today: a long nave with a high choir, the broad transept and the two narrow western towers.
The greater part of the building collapsed in the winter of 1946 in consequence of the fire bombing of Würzburg on 16 March 1945. Reconstruction was completed in 1967, in the course of which the Baroque components were removed in favour of a re-Romanisation. The new interpretation emphasizes the contrast between the surviving historical parts of the structure, resulting in a sometimes controversial combination of predominantly Romanesque with modern and Baroque elements. The Romanesque Revival west front with a rose window, the tripartite gallery and the opening for the clock were combined during the reconstruction with a plain pumice stone wall, and revealed again during renovation work up to November 2006. In 1988 the choir was redesigned by Hubert Elsässer.
