Koblenz: The Wine City
A unique cultural landscape shaped by the Rhine and Moselle rivers
WeinStadt Hiking
Wine and Koblenz - these two components simply belong together. And have actually always done so. The Romans brought their vines to the Rhine and Moselle over 2,000 years ago. The two rivers developed into pulsating arteries of life: On the steep slate slopes, the vines soak up the lush sun and ripen into high-yielding and full-bodied grapes, from which many excellent wines are still produced today through traditional winemaking techniques.
In Koblenz, around half a million vines are currently cultivated in the city area. The vineyard area covers around 40 hectares, almost 10 hectares of which are located on the Middle Rhine. The Koblenz Winegrowers' Association currently has 24 members and 11 full-time winegrowers in the city. Sparkling Rieslings thrive just as well around Deutsche Eck as strong Pinot Noirs or fruity Dornfelders.
Wine culture in all its facets has always shaped Koblenz - its appearance as well as the lifestyle and cuisine of its residents and guests. It can be felt throughout the city and the region - the passion for the precious grape juice! Discover the fascinating wine culture of the region at the unique wine festivals that take place throughout the year. Immerse yourself in a world of enjoyment and appreciation for the noble drop while celebrating together with vintners* and locals from the Rhine and Moselle. Alternatively, you can take part in one of our many guided wine tours or taste our famous wines directly from the winemakers!
