Oberwesel

Oberwesel

Oberwesel retains its medieval silhouette. Sixteen of the original 21 towers and much of the town wall still stand in the shadow of Schönburg Castle. The "town of towers" is also renowned for its Riesling wines, celebrated at a lively wine festival held the first half of September. Both Gothic churches on opposite ends of town are worth visiting.
