The opportunity to walk up the hill and experience the views, touch the walls, walk through adorned entrance doors, and see other aspects of the fortress from outside was unique. A must-do for those who come to Würzburg.

A small laboratory located in the former Physical Institute of the University of Wurzburg, now the University of Applied Sciences Wurzburg, was the sight of one of the most important scientific breakthroughs in medical history. On November 8th, 1895, Prof. Dr. Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen discovered a new kind of ray, which he called X-rays. Opened in 1985, this historic site honors W.C. Rontgen and his discovery, while providing an insight into physics of the late 19th century. Due to the current situation concerning COVID-19, the Bavarian Ministry of Science has ordered that all state libraries and museums are closed. For this reason, the Rontgen Memorial is also closed until further notice. Guided tours that have already been arranged will not take place.
