At Alzenau Castle the Burgfestspiele ("Castle Festival Games") and the AlzenauClassics are held in summer, and in autumn the Fränkische Musiktage ("Franconian Music Days") within the framework of Bayerischer Rundfunk's Musikzauber Franken ("Franconia Music Magic").
The Town Hall, built in 1860-62, was planned as a school, but then became the Royal Bavarian Regional Office.
