Kick-off to the Würzburg Wine Festival Season
Würzburg, an independent city on the Main River and the center of Lower Franconia, is considered the wine capital of Franconia. The Bürgerspital zum Heiligen Geist is one of the oldest and most renowned wineries in Germany. With the Kelterhallen-Weinfest, Bürgerspital traditionally opens the Würzburg wine festival season – still in spring, in the covered press house (Kelterhalle), regardless of the weather.
The venue is the press house (Kelterhalle) of the Bürgerspital winery at Theaterstraße 19, right in the heart of Würzburg's old town. The historic space, where grapes are usually pressed, transforms into a cozy wine festival location for the event. With free admission, visitors can sample fine Franconian wines from Bürgerspital.
As the first major wine festival of the year in Würzburg, the Kelterhallen-Weinfest holds special significance: it ushers in the Franconian wine festival season, which extends throughout Lower Franconia all year round. The combination of a historic setting, a renowned winery, and a convivial atmosphere makes the festival a fixed date in the calendar for Würzburg wine lovers.
