Willanzheim is a market town in the district of Kitzingen in Bavaria in Germany. Notable natives include Philipp Joseph Frick, b. April 14 1742, organist, composer, and performer on the glass armonica.[3]

In 1853, a cache of 163 gold coins, mostly 14th century Florentine gold florins, was discovered in a dung-pit in a Willanzheim farm. Some are now in the collection of the Staatliche Münzsammlung, München.[4]
