One of the many trulli, the vineyard cottages with the Italian name, which served as shelters in the vineyard. This one stands directly on an old sunken path. Hollow paths have dug themselves deep into the surrounding terrain over the centuries. No wonder, where man has used and travelled them so extensively. At their edges are high embankments with interesting flora and fauna. There are not many paths of this kind left. The 'Monsheimer Hohl' was probably created by farmers from the northern communities bringing their grain south to Monsheim to the mills for a long time. They then drove the flour back to their villages. This is also the site of one of the many typical vineyard cottages in the region. It bears the name of the path: 'Trullo an der Monsheimer Hohl'. The Italian name for the shelters in the vineyard only appeared in the middle of the 20th century. The audio-visual content of this point was created by a project of the Rhine-Haardt LAG and was funded within the framework of the EULLE development programme with the participation of the European Union and the state of Rhineland-Palatinate, represented by the Rhineland-Palatinate Ministry of Economics, Transport, Agriculture and Viticulture.
