Wertheim

Today is the lovely village Wertheim on Easter Sunday. Wertheim is a small city, about 33,000 inhabitants, just across the border from Bavaria, but still in the wine growing areas of Germany. The biggest feature of Wertheim is the ruined castle above the city.

This is the town well, just down from main square. We walked back to the tourist info station to catch the train back to the ship for lunch.

About 14:00 we got underway for Koblenz.
