Schloss Johannisburg, the second residence of the Archbishops-Elector of Mainz until 1803, is located in the center of Aschaffenburg on the banks of the Main. The magnificent four-winged complex, built between 1605 and 1614 under Archbishop-Elector Johann Schweikard von Kronberg, is one of the most significant castle buildings of the German late Renaissance.

Right at the bicycle elevator on the banks of the Main River below Aschaffenburg Castle, we encountered the first construction site, which still had a clear detour, making it unique. The other five construction sites we encountered dispensed with such courtesies, even feigning "flooding" or "pressure tests," with no sign of construction workers or vehicles. Up to the old Hohenstaufen …
