Frankfurt's 185-metre-high local mountain not only offers a wonderful skyline view, but is also the city's only vineyard.
A view of the skyline from the vineyard: With the 185-metre-high Lohrberg, Frankfurt has a real multitasking local mountain. Firstly, the grapes that grow here are pressed into Lohrberger. Secondly, extensive orchards stretch across the Lohrberg. They are the breeding ground for one of Frankfurt's most important specialties: Apple wine, known as "Ebbelwei" or "Ebbelwoi" in Hessian. The cider culture was even declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO in 2022.
One of the best places to understand this culture and to taste "Ebbelwei" is the MainÄppelHaus here on the Lohrberg. And thirdly, the walk up to the Lohrberg is also worthwhile. If you choose the walk via Berger Straße and Huthpark, you will not only see charming corners of the city, but will also be rewarded with a dream panorama at the top.
A special highlight of Frankfurt's wine culture is the coronation of the Frankfurt Wine Queen, which takes place every two years. As a charming ambassador for the city, she brings people closer to the tradition and enjoyment of Frankfurt wine. With her presence at events, she helps to bring wine culture to life and bring it to life. Curious to find out more?
