"Former tower of the city fortifications at the Sülztor. City prison from 1735 until the 20th century. The gate was demolished in 1821. The current tower structure was probably built around 1840.
Eltville am Rhein (from Alta Villa, Latin for "high estate, high town", corrupted to Eldeville, Elfeld and later Eltville, German pronunciation: [ˈɛltvɪlə]) is a town in the Rheingau-Taunus-Kreis in the Regierungsbezirk of Darmstadt in Hesse, Germany. It lies on the German Timber-Frame Road (Fachwerkstraße).
Eltville is the biggest town in the Rheingau. It bears the nicknames Weinstadt, Sektstadt, Rosenstadt and since 2006 also Gutenbergstadt. Some of Germany's most famous vineyards (Steinberg, Rauenthaler Baiken, Erbacher Marcobrunn) are found within Eltville's municipal limits.
Eltville, which belongs culturally to the Rheingau region, lies on the River Rhine, 12 km west-southwest of Wiesbaden.
The earliest traces of humans settling here go back to the New Stone Age. There has been continuous habitation since the late 4th century. Eltville had its first documentary mention in Vita Bardonis (Bardo's life) from 1058, a biography of Archbishop Bardo of Mainz. In 1329, the archiepiscopal castle and the town wall around Eltville were built. On 23 August 1332, Emperor Louis the Bavarian granted Eltville town rights. With the granting of town rights, Eltville ended up being a pawn in the then ongoing dispute between the Emperor and the Pope. Archbishop Baldwin, one of Emperor Louis's followers and administrator of the Mainz monastery, was the one who asked for Eltville to be raised to town. From 1347 to 1480, Eltville was the residence of the Archbishops of Mainz. In 1349, Günther of Schwarzburg was defeated in his bid for the German throne at the Siege of Eltville. From Dietrich Schenk von Erbach, Archbishop of Mainz (1434–1459), the outlying centre of Erbach presumably got its name.
Rheingau is one of 13 designated German wine regions (Weinbaugebiete) producing quality wines (QbA and Prädikatswein). It was named after the traditional region of Rheingau (meaning "Rhine district"), the wine region is situated in the state of Hesse, where it constitutes part of the Rheingau-Taunus-Kreis administrative district. Although, making up only 3 percent of the total German vineyard area, Rheingau has been the source of many historically important innovations in German wine making, and contains many wine producers of international reputation, such as Schloss Johannisberg. Rheingau, with 3,125 hectares (7,720 acres) of vineyards in 2016, also boasts a higher proportion of Riesling (77.7%) than any other German wine-growing region, with Spätburgunder (Pinot noir) making up most of the rest (12.2%), followed by Müller-Thurgau.
The geography of the Rheingau is very distinct. Around Wiesbaden, the river Rhine detours from its northward flow west for about 30 km before it flows north again. The greater part of the Rheingau is situated here on the river's right bank, but the region also includes the stretch along Rhine after it turns northward again, around the villages Assmannshausen and Lorch. The vineyards in Hochheim on the Main river are also included, just before it flows into Rhine. The Rheingau spans about 50 km from end to end. North of the Rheingau rises the Taunus mountain range, so most of the Rheingau's vineyards are on south-facing slope between hills and streams, which provides excellent wine-growing conditions in these northerly latitudes.
Since the Verona donation in 983, the Rheingau belonged to the archbishopric of Mainz. Legend has it that Charlemagne let the first vineyards be planted in the region, close to present-day Schloss Johannisberg. However finds like a Roman origin grapevine cutting knife point to even earlier cultivation. Better documented is the early influence of the church on Rheingau winemaking, which was controlled from Eberbach Abbey. Augustinians and Benedictines are known to have inhabited the area of the later abbey from 1116, and in 1135 the Cistercians arrived, sent out from Clairvaux. Legend has it that the Cistercians, which are also credited with having founded the wine industry in Burgundy, brought Pinot noir with them to Rheingau, although the earliest record of the grape variety in Rheingau is from 1470. The slopes down from the Taunus mountains belonging to Eberbach Abbey were planted as vineyards in the 12th century, and early in the 13th century the vineyards had reached their present area. In medieval times, more red than white wine was produced, usually as Gemischter Satz, i.e. the vineyards were planted with mixed varieties which were vinified together.
Rheingau Wine Official Classification of 1867
In 2011 it was unveiled, that the Official Wine Classification in the Rheingau has a 150 years history. The classification was the basis for taxation of wineries after the annexation of the Duchy of Nassau by the Kingdom of Prussia in 1866. In the book Der nassauische Weinbau published in 1867 by Friedrich Wilhelm Dünkelberg a historical map Weinbau-Karte des nassauischen Rheingaus (Viticultural map of the Rheingau in the Duchy of Nassau), all known vineyards at that time had been marked up by colour, evaluated and classified in first class vineyards (I. Klasse), second class vineyards (II. Klasse) and the remaining vineyards." - info from Wikipedia.

The original Old Town Hall at the market square was built between 1405 and 1412. Of the rather simple late Gothic brick building you can see from the market side, however, not much today. The Renaissance façade, which today the by UNESCO protected building gives the neat appearance, was built between 1608 and 1614 by Lüder von Bentheim. Especially above the arcades on the market side, it is lavishly decorated with various representations of ancient mythologies, which mix in an idiosyncratic manner with Christian symbolism, urban symbols and other representations. Incidentally, the dimensions of the town hall, which do not quite correspond to today ones due to extension work at the beginning of the 20th century, are due to a rather peculiar action before the foundation stone was laid. The basis for measurement for the new town hall was based on the idea of having all voting citizens set up on the Bürgerweide (Citizens' Meadow) in a rectangle, to measure and to use these measures as a floor plan. The result was 40 by 13 meters, which probably did not even correspond to 200 citizens. Today, the historic town hall is mainly used for representative purposes. Thus, for example, under the lavish splendor of the Renaissance and Baroque periods in the upper town hall since 1545 the traditional Schaffermahl (fraternal meal, since 2004 also to women open) is taken place. Since the statutes only allow men to participate, the somewhat stiff-looking event has been criticized by the women for several years. In the lower town hall, on the other hand, public events such as exhibitions and the annual craft market take place in the run-up to Christmas. The three-aisled hall, which is accessible from the 1660-formed City hall portal on the left transverse side of the building, still bears the simple features of late Gothic. Once upon a time there was a lively life here, people acted, taxes were paid and law was spoken. To the left of the entrance to the lower City hall you will find one of the city's landmarks, the Bremen Town Musicians. On the opposite side of the lower Town hall, the east portal is flanked by two heralds on horseback. The equestrian statues are by the sculptor Rudolf Maison, who presented them at the 1900 World Fair in Paris. They came to Bremen through the donation of the banker John Harjes, who had bought the bronzes. Right next to the heralds is the New Town Hall. It was built between 1909 and 1913 to designs by Gabriel von Seidl, an architect from Munich. Architecturally, the new is perfectly adapted to the old town hall. It is also due to the fact that both parts were included with the Roland as an ensemble in the UNESCO list. In its premises, the New Town Hall houses the mayor, the Senate Chancellery and the state government. In the basement vaults of the Old Town Hall resides the Ratskeller, a wine-gastronomy with a history going back to the 15th century. Up to three quarters of a million bottles of German wine are stored in heydays, especially in the treasury, the wine cellar of the house. The real treasure, however, is stored in the Cellar of Roses. It houses the oldest German wines from the cask back to the 17th century. Thus, the Ratskeller is also representative of the long tradition of Bremen as a wine city. Incidentally, Ratskeller wine can also be bought outside the Ratskeller, namely next to the main entrance of the New Town Hall on the north side to the Domshof (Cathedral Court).
Das ursprüngliche Alte Rathaus am Marktplatz wurde zwischen 1405 und 1412 errichtet. Von dem eher schlichten spätgotischen Backsteinbau sieht man von der Marktseite allerdings heute nicht mehr viel. Die Renaissance-Fassade, die heute dem von der UNESCO geschützten Bau das schmucke Aussehen verleiht, wurde zwischen 1608 und 1614 von Lüder von Bentheim errichtet. Besonders oberhalb der Arkaden an der Marktseite ist sie üppig verziert mit verschiedenen Darstellungen aus antiken Mythologien, die sich mit christlicher Symbolik, stadtbremischen Symbolen und anderen Darstellungen auf eigenwillige Weise mischen.
Die Maße des Rathauses, die den heutigen aufgrund von Erweiterungsarbeiten Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts allerdings nicht mehr ganz entsprechen, sind übrigens auf eine ziemlich eigentümliche Aktion vor der Grundsteinlegung zurückzuführen. Die Bemessungsgrundlage für das neue Rathaus ergab sich aus der Idee, alle stimmberechtigten Bürger sich auf der Bürgerweide in einem Rechteck aufstellen zu lassen, zu messen und diese Maße als Grundriss zu verwenden. Das Ergebnis lautete 40 mal 13 Meter, was vermutlich nicht einmal 200 teilnehmenden Bürgern entsprach.
Genutzt wird das historische Rathaus heute vor allem zu repräsentativen Zwecken. So findet etwa unter dem verschwenderischen Prunk der Renaissance- und Barockzeit in der oberen Rathaushalle seit 1545 das traditionsreiche Schaffermahl statt. Da die Statuten nur Männern die Teilnahme gestatten, steht die nach außen etwas steif wirkende Veranstaltung seit etlichen Jahren in der Kritik von weiblicher Seite. In der unteren Rathaushalle finden dagegen vor allem öffentliche Veranstaltungen wie Ausstellungen und der jährliche Kunsthandwerksmarkt in der Vorweihnachtszeit statt. Die dreischiffige Halle, die durch das 1660 entstandene Rathausportal an der linken Querseite des Gebäudes zugänglich ist, trägt noch die schlichten Züge der Spätgotik. Einst herrschte hier reges Leben, wurde gehandelt, wurden Steuern entrichtet und Recht gesprochen. Links neben dem Eingang zur unteren Rathaushalle findet sich eines der Wahrzeichen der Stadt, die Bremer Stadtmusikanten.
Auf der gegenüberliegenden Querseite der unteren Rathaushalle wird das Ostportal von zwei Herolden zu Pferd flankiert. Die Reiterstandbilder stammen von dem Bildhauer Rudolf Maison, der sie auf der Weltausstellung 1900 in Paris vorstellte. Nach Bremen kamen sie durch die Schenkung des Bankiers John Harjes, der die Bronzen gekauft hatte.
Rechts neben den Herolden schließt sich das Neue Rathaus an. Es wurde zwischen 1909 und 1913 nach Entwürfen von Gabriel von Seidl, einem Architekten aus München, erbaut. Architektonisch passt sich das Neue dem Alten Rathaus ausgezeichnet an. Es ist auch dieser Tatsache geschuldet, dass beide Teile mit dem Roland als Ensemble in die UNESCO-Liste aufgenommen wurden. Im seinen Räumlichkeiten beherbergt das Neue Rathaus den Bürgermeister, die Senatskanzlei und die Landesregierung.
In den Kellergewölben des Alten Rathauses residiert der Ratskeller, eine Wein-Gastronomie mit einer bis in das 15. Jahrhundert zurück reichenden Geschichte. Bis zu einer Dreiviertel Million Flaschen deutscher Wein lagern in Hochzeiten vor allem in der Schatzkammer, dem Weinkeller der Hauses. Der wahre Schatz lagert allerdings im Rosekeller. Er beherrbergt die ältesten deutschen Fassweine bis zurück in das 17. Jahrhundert. Damit steht der Ratskeller auch stellvertretend für die lange Tradition Bremens als Weinstadt. Ratskellerwein kann man übrigens auch außerhalb des Ratskellers kaufen, nämlich neben dem Haupteingang des Neuen Rathauses auf der Nordseite zum Domshof.

Das täuscht aber. Der Biergarten liegt daneben und ist wirklich empfehlenswert :-)

Das Teehäusjen ist das älteste Fachwerkhaus in Boppard. Ein spätgotisches Fachwerkhaus, das 1519 erbaut wurde.
In dem Teehäusjen befindet sich heute ein kleiner Teeladen mit Teestube.
Das spätgotische Fachwerkhaus in der Unteren Marktstraße 10 gehört zu dem ältesten Wohngebäudebestand der Stadt Boppard. In unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft der katholischen Pfarrkirche St. Severus mit einem Taufbecken aus frühchristlicher Zeit steht das Haus auf einem frühmittelalterlichen Gewölbekeller. .... der Gewölbekeller ist älter als das Wohnhaus, da die Grundrisse nicht übereinstimmen. Größer als das darüber errichtete Wohnhaus, reicht er noch bis unter das Nachbargebäude; von dort gab es jedoch keinen Zugang. Der Keller wurde als Weinkeller, wie es typisch für eine Weinstadt wie Boppard ist, genutzt. Das ursprüngliche Gebäude wurde vermutlich durch einen der vielen Großbrände zerstört.
Nach dendrochronologischen Untersuchungen kann die Erbauungszeit des jetzigen Hauses mit dem Jahr 1519 angesetzt werden, das bestehende Haus blieb weitestgehend im Erbauungszustand erhalten. Von der wechselvollen Geschichte des Hauses ist leider wenig bekannt. Den 30jährigen Krieg (1618 - 1638), die französische Besetzung (1794) und die Kriege des 20. Jahrhunderts hat es unbeschadet überstanden.

Zwei Tage später besuchte ich nochmals denselben Aussichtspunkt; aber am Vormittag, um eine andere Lichtstimmung einzufangen. Die Blickrichtung geradeaus, Mitte, ist nun nach Waiblingen bis Weinstadt-Beutelsbach.
Die Hügel um Oppenheim sind von Weinbergen bedeckt und die Stadt ist für ihre Weine und besonders den Oppenheimer Krötenbrunnen international bekannt.
Hier ist im Hintergrund die am Rhein gelegene Weinstadt Nierstein mit der St. Kiliankirche zu sehen.

"Geisenheim is a town in the Rheingau-Taunus-Kreis in the Regierungsbezirk of Darmstadt in Hessen, Germany, and is known as Weinstadt (“Wine Town”), Schulstadt (“School Town”), Domstadt (“Cathedral Town”) and Lindenstadt (“Linden Tree Town”).
Geisenheim lies on the Rhine’s right bank between Wiesbaden and Rüdesheim, 3 km away to the west. Mainz lies 21 km away to the east.
Geisenheim had its first documentary mention in 772 and has belonged since the Middle Ages to the Archbishopric of Mainz and later to the Duchy of Nassau, the Kingdom of Prussia and the state of Hesse. Since 1864, Geisenheim has held town rights.
