Romantic Rhine | AllCheapFares

 

On the most romantic part of the Rhine river where the Rhine valley scenery is most impressive, lays the historical wine-growing village of Assmannshausen with its narrow streets and picturesque houses with pointed gables. 


Not only the mighty Rhine dominates the landscape, but also the impressive Rheinstein Castle on the opposite side, the woodlands of the Taunus range, and the hanging slopes of colourful vineyards. 


First mentioned in 1108, Assmannshausen has since then been primarily connected with wine-growing, and over the last two centuries has developed as a holiday resort offering a whole variety of activities. Nature-lovers feel just as much at home here as do gourmets in the quality restaurants and cosy wine taverns with romantic terraces tempt the visitor to taste the Red Burgundy of Assmannshausen, one of the most famous German red wines.
