    The miniature Leckzapfen castle was built in 1891 by the estate and mill owner Gustav Friedrich Weißheimer on his vineyard of the same name. The building is similar to the romantic fairytale castle Lichtenstein, whose historic reconstruction is based on the descriptions of the well-known novel "Lichtenstein" by Wilhelm Hauff.

    In 2011, the Leckzapfen was awarded the title of "Most beautiful vineyard house in Rheinhessen".

    From its balcony you can enjoy a wonderful view over Osthofen, the Rhine plain and the Rheinhessen hills. The Leckzapfen is one of the particularly attractive viewpoints on the Rhine Terrace Trail.

      The "Leckzapfen" is actually a miniature castle and belongs to the winery Schönauer Hof of the Kratz family, only a few meters away. The "leak" can also be rented privately, it is really a great location with a wonderful panorama and the wines are also delicious 🥂.
