Join us on a ramble through the historic old town of Neustadt an der Weinstraße, with its winding alleyways, picturesque half-timbered houses, imaginative fountains, the Gothic Stiftskirche, the historic market place…
A guide will give you an entertaining description of the eventful history of the town, including interesting details about Germany’s clandestine wine capital.

2.00 p.m. – from the entrance to the Hambacher Schloß
Then, as now, the Hambacher Schloß, rising high above the German wine route, stands for liberty, civil rights, national liberty and a “confederated” Europe. Did you know that, as early as 175 years ago, civil-rights activists first bore flags with the colours black, red and gold as “tricolours”? Find out more about the eventful history, the battle for German democracy, during the guided tour.
