Wertheim am Main is a stop on some river cruises in southwestern Germany. But the town is so picturesque, you may want to spend more than a few paltry hours here. Wertheim am Main has an outstanding medieval town center that is overlooked by an impressive 12th century castle on a nearby hill. The Pointed Tower is another landmark,, sometimes referred to as the Leaning Tower of Wertheim. Floods over the centuries have weakened the foundation, causing it to lean. If you’re looking for glass souvenirs, Wertheim am Main is famous for its glass-making.
