Mayschoß belongs to the Walporzheim wine-growing area in the Ahr region. There are 59 wine-growing businesses in the town, and the vineyard area is 103 hectares. Around 70% of the wine grown is red wine grape varieties (as of 2010). In 1979, there were still 89 businesses operating, and the vineyard area at that time was 91 hectares.

The corner far above the river offers a very nice view of the Ahr valley.

The climb to Saffenburg is worth it: Not only does the perfect view over Mayschuss and its vineyards await you here, you can also reward yourself with a delicious glass of wine at any time. Next to the refuge there is a wine vending machine with delicious white, rosé and red wines as well as grape juice and water. Glasses are also available for loan. Payment is only possible cashless.

Very beautiful city center with the half-timbered houses and the well-preserved city fortifications from the Middle Ages. >> Ahrweiler << - the older of the two districts, was first mentioned as >> Ahrwilere << in the year 893 in a goods list of the Prüm Abbey. This abbey had large possessions in Ahrweiler. Until 1100 Ahrweiler belonged to the Argau. from 1100 - 1246 sovereignty was exercised by the Counts of Are; From them it passed in 1246 to the Counts of Hochstaden of the Archbishopric of Cologne, who remained rulers until 1794. Archbishop Konrad von Are-Hochstaden, who confirmed Ahrweiler's city rights in 1248, made the city, together with Bonn, Neuss and Andernach, co-capital of Electoral Cologne. In keeping with this political and strategic importance, the sovereign had Ahrweiler fortified with a fortification that is still worth seeing today. The moats, city walls, gates and towers from the 13th century are almost completely preserved today. During the Thirty Years' War (1633, 1642, 1646) the city was besieged, looted and pillaged by enemies; During the 3rd French War of Robbery on May 1, 1689, all but 10 houses were completely destroyed. It took years for the reconstruction to take place. From 1794 - 1814 Ahrweiler was under French rule, which was followed by belonging to Prussia from 1815 - 1945. Ahrweiler had to endure the last enemy attacks in 1044 and 1945. The bombing left the southern part of the city center completely in ruins. But reconstruction took place quickly. Anyone who visits Ahrweiler as a lover of antiquity will be particularly impressed by the St. Laurentius parish church (1269) - one of the first Gothic hall churches in the Rhineland - and the excavation work on the recently discovered probably second largest Roman villa north of the Alps.

For me, Ahrweiler is one of the most beautiful places on the Ahr. If you are here for the first time, you should definitely take a look at the beautiful old town, with its hustle and bustle in the alleys and on the market square.
