Wine vaults

Former cattle stables with cross vaults, built by master mason Franz Ostermayer for the first time in Rheinhessen. After the dairy industry was abandoned, so far 45 such "cow chapels" have been converted into wine taverns, "Straußwirtschaften" and wine tasting rooms. The owners joined together in 1999 to form a "IG Rheinhessen Weingewölbe", which aims to cultivate and make use of these landscape-typical buildings.
