Mainbrucke, Miltenberg, Germany

We walked to the Wurzburger Tor, the eastern entrance to Miltenberg’s old town, once a heavily guarded gate back in Medieval times. We continued on to have a look at the town bridge, Mainbrucke Miltenberg. It wasn’t until 1900 that the town had its own bridge and with the original one detonated by retreating Germans in 1945, the current one wasn’t opened until 1950 and the design embraced Miltenberg’s Medieval heritage with a replica of a fortified sandstone gatehouse.

After our morning stroll we stopped in our square a croissant and cappuccino for morning tea. One of the best croissants so far. The added bonus is that as today is a public holiday for Easter Monday it means there are not a lot of tourist around, but with that positive is the negative that the quaint little shops aren’t open for me to browse in (which Brad is happy about).Leia mais
