With its towering, glinting horizon of headquarters, Frankfurt is best-known as the financial centre of Germany – but that wouldn’t be doing justice to the city’s creative side. Step beyond the skyscrapers and you’ll find medieval architecture, traditional taverns and enough museums and arts spots to fill a culture junkie’s year.
Start with the Museumsufer. Created in the 1980s, this boulevard of museums centres around the fine art-focused Städel. For a cultural nightcap, cross the river to the Frankfurt Opera to catch Fromental Halevy’s La Juive, opening on 16 June.
Then, the tradition-steeped Steigenberger Icon Frankfurter Hof hotel boasts luxurious feather-soft beds and a Michelin-starred restaurant, Français, in which to end your night.

In no hurry? Stop off at Rothenburg ob der Tauber – which inspired the setting of Disney’s Pinocchio – and stroll down its cobbled streets. Climb the town hall tower – wearing these sleek, stylish trainers – for picturesque views over Rothenburg’s medieval old town.
Famous for its world-class wines, Wurzburg, the heart of Germany’s ‘Romantic Road’, is a spot you won’t want to miss. Often overlooked for beer-drinking Bavaria, the region’s cluster of vineyards are well worth a visit – especially for the Riesling wines on offer. Sign up for a wine tour to sample the best of everything – Bürgerspital does a great one.
While in Wurzburg, wander the picturesque Alte Mainbrücke (or ‘main bridge’), lined with 12 gilded statues of saints and emperors. It’s here you’ll come across Alte Mainmuehle, serving elegant Franconian cuisine. Book a table on the balcony for views over the river.
Come evening, retire to Schloss Steinburg, a castle hotel that sits high above the city in the peaceful Steinburg vineyard, birthplace of the delicious ‘Würzburger Stein’ grape.
Shop the Village from home and enjoy our brilliant brands direct to your door.
Once you’ve sampled the best of Franconian wines, it’s time to continue south for Bavarian baked goods and beer. You’ll want to start in the Altmühltal Valley Nature Park – the so-called ‘Green heart of Bavaria’ – where you can hike the Altmühltal-Panoramaweg trail and soak up the scenery.
For a less energetic approach, head straight to the nearby Hotel Schönblick, where you can spend your afternoon relaxing in the on-site Altmühl Spa. There the pool overlooks the lush, green park so you can enjoy all the views with none of the exertion.

Time for an extra day? Take a day trip to Schloss Neuschwanstein, the castle that inspired Disney’s Sleeping Beauty, in Ettaleer Forest on the fringes of the Alps. Travel like a local by forgoing the costly tour and getting there by train. You’ll look the part in this pretty printed playsuit.
Make your final day one for dining – it won’t be hard. In Bavaria, there’s an unofficial fourth meal called brotzeit (bread time) comprising bread, sausages and cheese, eaten as a mid-morning or mid-afternoon snack. With a bakery seemingly on every corner in Munich, it’s too tempting a treat to miss.
Or browse mouth-watering street foods at Viktualienmarkt in the city centre. Stock up for lunch before heading to one of the many beer gardens (you’re allowed to bring your own food). Hirschgarten, just 10 minutes from the city centre, is quieter than the famed Englischer Garten, but just as loved for its green pastures and nearby deer park. Its huge beer garden – the city’s oldest – celebrates its 230th birthday in 2022.
