I visited The Residence in 2004 and unfortunately they were revamping the paintings on the ceiling so I didn't get to see the real beauty of it but did love the rest of the tour.I enjoyed the city so very much that I returned back the following September and spent more time there. I loved walking around Wurzburg, my hotel was a skip to the walking bridge across the Main. Visited many areas of Germany when I was there but loved Wurzburg the most.
