    Pure romance of the Rhine. Oberwesel has beautiful old buildings. Town of towers is called Oberwesel, because the old city wall is very well preserved and even walkable, almost around the city. Since it is clear that many towers (16 defense towers) are installed here. The Schönburg towers up on the mountain and has a good reputation kitchen. (And price) There are guided tours and even a night watchman tour. Here lives the Middle Ages.
