A beautiful castle that is worth visiting and visiting.

Legend has it that even in the Middle Ages, the wines were so good that the cellar master would lick the barrel's tap to get every last drop. https://www.rheinhessen.de/weinlagen/l-osthofener-leckzapfen

This is a beautiful historic building

Leiningen Castle, located in the town center, has a multifaceted past. The shell was completed in 1708, but no further expansion took place at first, as the then owner, Count Carl Ludwig von Leiningen-Dagsburg-Falkenburg, died in 1709. His wife, Countess Anna Sabina von Nostitz, sold the property to the Electorate of the Palatinate's Privy Council in 1717 due to financial difficulties. In the years that followed, the castle fell more and more into oblivion until 70 years later, in 1787, a member of the Leiningen family again became the owner. Count Wilhelm Carl zu Leiningen-Guntersblum renovated the impressive building and expanded it further for the purposes of the count's family. In 1833, the castle became the property of the municipality of Guntersblum and has been officially used as a town hall since 1834. Since 2014, an administrative office for the Rhein-Selz municipality has also been located in the building. The basement is also used as an event space. The area in front of the castle was originally designed as a sprawling castle park. Over time, this park was pushed back by various buildings; today a single fountain holds the position as a relic of bygone days. https://www.rheinhessen.de/a-leininger-schloss

Miniature Castle Leckzapfen (1891) - Osthofen 🚴‍♂️ Tasty or licking, or both? And which tap? The tap or a tattoo? The location is named after the miniature castle "Leckzapfen," built in 1891 by Gustav Friedrich Weißheimer, a landowner and mill owner from Osthofen, which is why it was also called "Gustavsburg" in its early days. The brick and clinker building with a round tower on the side is a true gem – and bears a resemblance to the famous fairytale Lichtenstein Castle. After years of decay, it was lovingly renovated and voted "Rheinhessen's Most Beautiful Vineyard Cottage" in 2011. From its balcony, you can enjoy a magnificent view over Osthofen, the Rhine plain, and the Rhenish-Hessian hills. Legend has it that even in the Middle Ages, the wines were so good that the cellar master would lick the barrel's tap to get every last drop. 🚴‍♂️ https://www.rheinhessen.de/weinlagen/l-osthofener-leckzapfen-409

The complex, which was probably built in the 13th century, was the nucleus of the Rhenish County Palatine, secondary residence and seat of the Oberamt administration. Especially under the two Ruprecht, Count Palatine Ruprecht II and Ruprecht III, who as Ruprecht I was German king from 1400-1410, Alzey Castle was one of the favorite residences of the Count Palatine. Ruprecht II was therefore sometimes dubbed the "Duke of Alzey" and during the reign of King Ruprecht, Alzey and its castle were even considered the "chancellor's office" of the empire due to the large number of documents issued here. In the 15th and 16th centuries, the castle was expanded into a representative palace complex, which was severely damaged in the Palatinate War of Succession. In the aftermath of the romantically inspired wave of castle restorations in the 19th century, the ruins of Alzey Castle were rebuilt in historic splendor at the beginning of the 20th century. Since then it has been used as a district court and also houses a boarding school. Source: www.alzey.de
