Würzburg Wolf

The Würzburg Wolf is a geographical feature in Germany’s Main River near Würzburg. It is a natural, horseshoe-shaped bend or loop caused by the river's erosion and flow patterns over time. Such formations can create isolated areas of land known as oxbow lakes or wetlands, which are important for local ecosystems. The Würzburg Wolf reflects the dynamic nature of river systems, showcasing how flowing water gradually shapes the landscape through erosion and sediment deposition. It is an interesting example of river morphology that highlights the ongoing processes of natural landscape development.
