Herrnsheimer Schloss (Herrnsheim Castle)

Castle, castle park and chapel: picturesque location

One of the most beautiful castles in Rheinhessen: Herrnsheim Castle from the first half of the 19th century, today owned by the city of Worms. However, the foundations of the castle are much older: a moated castle already stood here around 1460. The eventful history of the castle is closely linked to the noble family of Dalberg. The single vineyard nestles against the castle park and runs parallel to the Rhine towards Osthofen, including the small St. Anna Chapel. Riesling, Pinot Blanc, Gewürztraminer or Sauvignon Blanc grow here on loess and sand. The castle and castle grounds are used for cultural events, including the stylish Herrnsheim Wine Summer.
