Historic Old Town of Freinsheim

Freinsheim enchants with its beautiful old town, which invites you to stroll and linger. Everywhere there are cozy restaurants and wine taverns, some in idyllic backyards, where you can stop off well and taste a regional Riesling, for example.

A truly beautiful and varied tour that leads through several picturesque towns. There's something to discover in every village, and there's plenty of food and drink to enjoy. Even on a Monday, when we did the tour, there were countless wine bars, restaurants, and cafés open along the route, all of which looked very inviting.
