    Hiking

    The namesake of the popular Huxel grape, Fritz Huxel (1892-1972), lived here in Westhofen, near the mill wheel on the Seebach. He worked closely with the State Institute for Grape Breeding in Alzey and with his friend Georg Scheu, and made great progress in viticulture as a whole.
    (Every second weekend in May, everything in Alzey revolves around the famous grape breeder Georg Scheu and his variety "Sämling 88", which is popular far beyond Alzey. Better known as Scheurebe.)
