The building was erected in 1826/27 on the site of a previous building from 1608 (see the date on the cellar gate) in the former “Kirchgasse” (today “An der Burgkirche”). The hipped roof building has a gable-crowned middle part and a clock-tower with a clock and weather flag, added in 1837. Below the balcony the date 1827 can be seen.

He was trained in Reims and helped to teach the new forms of architecture on his way via Noyon, Mainz and Naumburg. The small, precious…

Like white sugar loaves, they shine between the rows of vines. Three of them can be found in the region around Flonheim. The name comes from the roundhouses that are mainly found in Apulia/Italy. In our region they were built in the 18th century as shelters in the vineyards, although there is no historical evidence as to whether the round houses from Puglia served as a model or not. One of the most…
