TAUBERBISCHOFSHEIM

BAVARIA, GERMANY

IMAGE NUMBER 1060

Tauberbischofsheim is situated at the western end of the Tauber valley - marketed heavily in German as the "liebliches Taubertal" ("the lovely Tauber valley"). Rothenburg is at the other end of the valley and there are a number of very pleasant small villages and towns along the country roads: Creglingen, Bad Mergentheim and Lauda-Königshofen amongst them. Nowadays it is one of the first stops on the Romantic Road heading south from Würzburg
