Rheinhessen, Rheingau

The Rheingau and Rheinhessen are among the oldest German cultural landscapes. Many peoples formed the region in southwest Germany. Romanesque and Gothic architecture are at home here, but modernity has long been here as well. An armada of winegrowers also leaves its mark on the region, as Germany's best wines ripen on the slopes to the right and left of the river.
