Monsheimer Rosengarten

Also known as:
Kriegsheimer Rosengarten

Devotional, romantic or humorous? 

The location was mentioned in a document in 1750 with the name "in the rose garden". The planting of the noble flower, the rose, may have led to its name. Often, however, these vineyard anmen point to early medieval burial sites. Which of these is true, we do not know today. But the single vineyard is quite romantic today in spring - with pink blossoming almond trees. And is adorned by two trulli, small white round houses. The radio tower trullo looks particularly funny. A funny architectural ensemble of brick on the one hand and a steel construction on the other. A bench and a round table invite you to rest under the trees. The "Pfrimm", a small river (the locals say "the Bach") flows by not far away. Monsheim and Kriegsheim (a district of Monsheim) have over 20 bridges. A wide variety of grape varieties grow on loess soil with sand, gravel and clay portions. The vineyard can be found under the name "Monsheimer Rosengarten" as well as "Kriegsheimer Rosengarten".

Zellertalweg (round trip Monsheim - Mölsheim - Wachenheim)

This 9.5-kilometer round starts and ends in Monsheim.

Monsheim is the eastern gateway to Zellertal. In the west-east course meanders the "Pfrimm", which flows from the Donnersberg the Zellertal and flows at Worms into the Rhine, by the local situation. Worth seeing are the town hall from 1832, the residential tower in the district war home from the 14th century and the Monsheimer castle. The latter was still in 1394 a moated castle ("Veste Monsheim").

On Weinbergswegen you reach the place Mölsheim and a dream place for a break on the way - the Weinrast with vision, where on Sundays and public holidays regional wines and delicacies are offered.

The tour can of course also be started from any other point and can be combined with the west adjacent Zellertal round Wachenheim-Mölsheim-Zell-Niefernheim-Wachenheim.
