Bastion St. Burkard Tunnel

Highlight • Structure

The Burkarder Tor is a gateway of the bastion fortifications, built by Antonio Petrini in 1680. The gate is only open to pedestrians and cyclists. The Graben Bridge over the Burkarder circulation canal connects seamlessly to the gate.

Path into the world of birds

Highlight • Monument

There are many opportunities to walk on beautiful and in the summer always shady forest trails. Very popular area among others for runners.

The valley of the Steinbach is left-leaning, begins at the height of the Sebastian-Kneipp-Steg and runs south of the Nikolausberg. Along the stream there is a park, which widened slowly in the course of the valley and flows into the Würzburg city forest.

The district also includes the Nikolausberg and the residential area Dallenberg. The area south of the Steinbach was incorporated in 1930 as part of Heidingsfeld. On May 1, 1978, an area of 155 ha in the rear of the valley was changed from Höchberg to the city of Würzburg. This area corresponds to the district Steinbachtal, which is listed in the official municipality directories. In 1955, the parish of St. Bruno was built in Steinbachtal.

Cherry blossoms dance –
Marienberg's pride shines through delicate branches.


A soft veil of blossoms,
The fortress sits enthroned in the spring light –
Time briefly holds its breath.


A tower from ancient times rises between the pink scent –
Silence and history.
