The Rheingau wine region is home to the world-famous Riesling vine. In wine circles it’s known as the ‘queen of the vines’ and not without reason.

The wine and rose town of Eltville is idyllically located between woods, vines and the Rhine. In summer, around 22,000 rose bushes come into flower on the romantic river promenade and around the castle, the town’s historic landmark.

The Nice of the North is how many describe Wiesbaden – the state capital of Hesse. Dominating the landscape are elegant villas, spacious parks and the historic Kurhaus assembly rooms.

The Brömserburg, once a moated castle, has been as much a part of Rüdesheim as the Rhine and the vineyards for some 1,000 years.

The Rheingau Music Festival is one of the largest in Europe and has been drawing music lovers from all over the world to the region for more than 30 years.
