Beautiful vineyard swing directly at the watchtower, with a wonderful view.

The giant bench at the vineyard swing at the watchtower in Nierstein is a real eye-catcher – not only because of its size, but also because of its stunning location. It stands above the town of Nierstein on the so-called Red Hang, one of the most famous vineyards in Rheinhessen. From there, you have a sweeping view over the vineyards, the Rhine, and on a clear day, even as far as Frankfurt and the Taunus Mountains.

The bench itself is oversized – so large that adults feel like children sitting on it. It invites you to linger, marvel, and, of course, take photos. Also nearby is the vineyard swing, which is also a popular destination for walkers and hikers. Together with the historic watchtower, a medieval signal tower dating back to the 12th century, the giant bench forms a charming ensemble of nature, history, and enjoyment.

The Nierstein Wingertsschaukel is located in the middle of the vineyards and offers a breathtaking view - in good weather you can even see as far as the Odenwald. It is particularly welcome for a little break in autumn, when the sun's rays bathe the vineyards in a golden light.
