Bavaria was the second state in the German Empire that allowed women to enroll at universities. This chapter not only focuses on one of the three Bavarian universities of that time, Würzburg, but also provides a picture of the events and circumstances in this state in general. After having looked at the processes that happened in order to let women have access to academic knowledge, mathematics in Bavaria comes to the fore. It appears that Würzburg had far different conditions than, for example, Munich. Several female Bavarian mathematics students and their life stories are presented and, finally, governmental decisions, negotiations, and the main characters involved in them are discussed. The aim of this contribution is to examine a rather small, rural university and the proceedings there in contrast to large universities like those in Berlin and Göttingen, where the discipline of mathematics was flourishing.
