Gerolzhofen

Gerolzhofen occupies the rolling foothills of the Steigerwald in Lower Franconia, Bavaria. The town stands in a farming country between the wooded uplands and the Main valley, giving it a distinctly rural Franconian setting despite its compact centre. Its parish church, Maria vom Rosenkranz, is widely known as the Steigerwalddom, a local landmark whose scale reflects Gerolzhofen’s former importance. The old town retains sections of its historic fortifications and a traditional market-town layout. Gerolzhofen was also the seat of its own district until Bavaria’s 1972 territorial reform.
