My 2nd visit here, mostly for the museum & Riemenschneider research, so didn't go into the fortress proper. But did a lot of wandering around, including the towers where prisoners were kept. Museum & information staff quite helpful.
From its hill top the fortress dominates the city. The garden is on the river side and it is the best place to view the river and the city. It is not to large, but the gardens are very well maintained.
Lovely peaceful garden with roses when we were there, places to sit. Very good view over rooftops and city so good place to take photos. This was a bonus gem of a find in this very busy city. Entry was free.
First you have to go through an inconspicuous passage next to the chapel to get to the garden, but then you will be honored by one of the best views over the City. Entrance is free of charge.
The garden self was almost nothing to see as there was no flower. I think it would be different in the summer when all the flowers are in blossom. But the view over the river Main and Würzburg is beautiful. It's a must visit if you're in the Marienberg Fortress
The Gardens at Marienburg Fortress are small, perhaps half a football field if that but still make for a nice change of pace and add to the variety of scenery at the fortress. There were plenty of tourists taking photos here, and the gardens are perched on the river side of the castle offering up some more great views. I'm not sure you would spend more than an hour here though, unless you toured the gardens below the castle.
