Medieval & Modern Marvels

The lands along the Main River promise the epitome of Bavarian history and culture. Medieval villages, sprawling vineyards, quaint cottages, and ancient castles line the slopes of this peaceful, wandering waterway, providing a glimpse into a less-travelled side of Germany.

Winding across Central Germany, the Main River is formed by the joining of the Red Main and the White Main, meeting the Rhine River at the picturesque town of Mainz. A marvel of modern engineering, the Main-Danube canal stretches for 170 kilometres from Bamberg to Regensburg with a total of 16 locks, making it possible to travel via river cruise ship from the North Sea to the Black Sea.
