デルレンバッハ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

The German Wine Gate in Silent-Rechenbach is accessible all year round and offers a beautiful all-round view. It is built in the style of a Roman fort. From a historical perspective, you should know that it was created in 1936 during National Socialism at the same time as the Wine Route. When looking at the Weintor from the French side, the former imperial eagle can still be seen; the obligatory swastika was subsequently knocked out. All too understandable. There are some very good winemakers in the surrounding area and it is highly recommended to try one or two wines.

An impressive building from a darker era in German history. It's the beginning or end of the German Wine Route and not far from Wissembourg. You can taste and purchase wine right there.

The creation of the Weintor unfortunately goes back to a very dark chapter in German history, but it is a tourist attraction.

Very beautiful ruin with a gigantic view ... a visit is definitely worth it

The southern end of the Palatinate Weinsteige.

Nice place for a stopover in the Palatinate

South of Busenberg, on the 367 m high castle hill, rises the once proud medieval Drachenfels Castle, which is already striking from afar because of its striking shape. Although it has become a ruin over the centuries as a result of military conflicts, it is still one of the historically most important sites in the Palatinate, according to many archaeologists and historians. First mentioned in connection with a knightly family of the same name in the 12th century, the castle was probably once the border castle of the Benedictine monastery in Klingenmünster. In 1335, because of the robber baronship of its owners, besieged and destroyed by Strasbourg citizens, the castle came to the knights of Dürkheim in the further course of its history, which was to be decisive for the Drachenfels for many years and rebuilt the Drachenfels. A mutual protective and defiant alliance of the Dürkheimers with a certain Franz von Sickingen, who was a valiant knight, led to the second destruction of the Drachenfels on May 10, 1523. Although the Drachenfels was never a Sickingen castle, it was destroyed by the allied troops of the Elector and Archbishop of Trier, the Elector Palatinate and the Landgrave of Hesse. The castellan and eight servants were no match for the superiority and surrendered the Drachenfels without a fight. Subsequently destroyed and razed, a ban on reconstruction was also imposed. The castle has remained a ruin to this day. In the course of the French Revolution, in its history the Palatinate was alternately German and French, the ruins came into the possession of the municipality, which is still the owner of the Drachenfels today. Visit the Drachenfels with its many characteristic rock chambers, with its towers and thickly reinforced shield walls. An overwhelming view of the magnificent landscape of the Dahner Felsenland, where mountain ridges crowned with red sandstone rocks repeatedly rise out of the green sea of forests, compensates you for the effort of the short ascent.

The 18 meter high building has been the symbol of the German Wine Route since 1936. The idea of the German Wine Gate and the German Wine Route was created in 1935. The aim was to promote tourism and increase the demand for wine during a very difficult phase for viticulture. The wine gate was built in just two months in 1936 and inaugurated on October 18, 1936. The 80-kilometer German Wine Route begins at the German Wine Gate in Schweigen-Rechtenbach and ends in Bockenheim in the north. Source: https://erlebnis-weintor.de/
