"... Where the Moselle mountains rise steeply again, only to drop gradually down to the Rhine, lies the large wine town of Winningen in a gentle bend in the river.
Finds from several millennia suggest that the fertile area has been inhabited continuously since the Neolithic Age. A Roman estate above the village testifies to Roman times, while Merovingian tombs as Frankish relics document settlement in the early Middle Ages. Winningen was first mentioned in a document in 865.
Since 1248 the place was owned by the Counts of Sponheim and became Protestant with them in 1557, as the only place in the area. Only a few years later, the people of Winning took a step that made them even more different from their neighboring winegrowers in Trier. They skilfully used the financial weakness of their noble lord and bought their freedom from serfdom with a twelve-year special tax.
Only 200 years later, with the fall of Electoral Triers in the wake of the French Revolution, did Moselle winegrowers enjoy the same freedom. The Winningen ring wall, completed in 1583, was "three feet wide and ten feet high."
Of the former six gates, the Horntor is still well preserved, but there are still a number of beautiful old half-timbered buildings, whereby it is striking that the half-timbered here is not painted oxblood red from the Moselle, but Rhenish black. The market square and the Weinhof with their buildings are attractive. There is "something going on" on both squares during the well-known Moselle Festival, which is celebrated in Winningen for ten days and is said to be the oldest winegrowers' festival in Germany. ..."

When you hear the name Winningen, you immediately think of wine. The wine village with first mention 865 is one of the most beautiful and popular wine villages on the Moselle, not only for busloads full of bowling clubs who are preparing for the oldest and longest wine festival, which lasts a full ten days from the last weekend in August. The Winninger Moselle Festival traditionally ends with a big fireworks display on the first Sunday in September. Ich-geh-wandern.de
