DenkOrt Deportationen 1941-1944 is a Holocaust memorial in Würzburg, Germany, commemorating the deportation of Jews from Würzburg and from the 109 surrounding communities in Lower Franconia where Jews once lived. Dedicated on 17 June 2020, the sculptural installation, located in front of Würzburg Hauptbahnhof (the central train station), is comprised of stylized suitcases, rucksacks, bundles, and blanket rolls, all crafted from locally sourced stone, wood, or metal and mounted on low plinths. The abandoned luggage symbolizes the loss and disappearance of Jews under the Nazis. Efforts to create the memorial were led by Benita Stolz, who served on Würzburg's City Council 1990-2020, together with Dr. Josef Schuster, a physician and president since 2014 of the Central Council of Jews in Germany (Zentralrat der Juden in Deutschland), and a past president of the Jewish Community in Würzburg. Local historians and community representatives also participated in planning the memorial, designed by artist Matthias Braun. The deportations on Holocaust trains from Würzburg and a nearby freight station were part of the Nazi regime's "Final Solution." Between 1941 and 1944, some 2,069 Jews were deported. Didactic panels, illustrated with archival photographs of deportees and their belongings, provide information about the deportations. Each piece of luggage has a "twin" that is to be installed in one of the surrounding towns as a further extension of the memorial, and QR codes attached to the luggage take visitors to a website to learn about the Jewish population and history of each town. DenkOrt Deportationen 1941-1944 has become a gathering place for Holocaust remembrance events, such as the anniversary of the first Würzburg deportations on 27 November 1941. It has also been targeted by vandals.

Würzburg Hauptbahnhof is a railway station for the city of Würzburg in the German state of Bavaria. It was opened in 1864 to the north of the inner city as a replacement for the former Ludwigsbahnhof (Ludwig's station) in the city centre, the capacity of which had been exhausted by the dramatic increase of rail traffic. Even today, Würzburg station is one of the major stations in Bavaria, since it lies at the intersection of several heavily used rail corridors. In particular, the routes in the north–south direction from Hamburg and Bremen to Munich as well as in west–east direction from the Rhine-Ruhr and Rhine-Main to Nuremberg and Vienna. Apart from Aschaffenburg Hauptbahnhof, Würzburg is the only station in Lower Franconia to be served by Intercity-Express services. With its combination of rail, tram and bus services, the station is the main hub for public transport in the city and the district of Würzburg.

The Battle of Würzburg was fought on 3 September 1796 between an army of the Habsburg monarchy led by Archduke Charles, Duke of Teschen and an army of the First French Republic led by Jean-Baptiste Jourdan. The French attacked the archduke's forces, but they were resisted until the arrival of reinforcements decided the engagement in favor of the Austrians. The French retreated west toward the Rhine River. The action occurred during the War of the First Coalition, part of the French Revolutionary Wars. Würzburg is 95 kilometres (59 mi) southeast of Frankfurt. The summer of 1796 saw the two French armies of Jourdan and Jean Victor Marie Moreau advance into southern Germany. They were opposed by Archduke Charles, who supervised two weaker Austrian armies commanded by Wilhelm von Wartensleben and Maximilian Anton Karl, Count Baillet de Latour. At the Battle of Amberg on 24 August, Charles managed to concentrate superior numbers against Jourdan, forcing him to withdraw. At Würzburg, Jourdan attempted a counterattack in a bid to halt his retreat. After his defeat, Charles forced Jourdan's army back to the Rhine. With his colleague in retreat, Moreau was isolated and compelled to abandon southern Germany.
