Main Square
The town lies 24 km west of Würzburg at the "Mainviereck" (Main Square) on the eastern side of the Spessart (range), geologically on the seam between the Spessart red sandstone area and the Muschelkalk area of the "Fränkische Platte" (a flat, mostly agricultural region), which between the Main Square and the "Maindreieck" (Main Triangle) is known as the "Marktheidenfelder Platte".
