Vinothek Rheinweinwelt Ruedesheim

Reviewed By Jonamorrison - London, United Kingdom

Superb way to experience a wide selection of local wines - you buy ten tokens and then can take your pick of upwards of 80 local bottles to try, all of which are well-kept and genuinely excellent. Staff and (I think) owner were very friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic and there’s a cafe/wine bar on site where you can get some larger glasses and food afterwards. If there’s a drawback, it’s that the information boards about the local vineyards are only in German, but, as mentioned, the staff are lovely and will field idiotic questions with great patience.

Benedictine Abbey of St. Hildegard

Reviewed By Mairwen1

The abbey and the cable-car were the 2 best things we did in Rudesheim. If you only have a few hours in Rudesheim, most people opt for the cable-car. However if you have more time then the abbey, sitting high up above Rudesheim, is a must. We walked up from Rudesheim, following the Hildegard Trail. It is worth noting that we had a lot of trouble finding the start of the trail (despite checking at the Tourist Information first). Finally we gave up and just started walking in the general direction of the abbey. Once we got to the big public carpark behind the town, the trail was easy to spot. From this point on it was well sign-posted. Just follow the nun (see photo of sign). The walk takes you through the vineyards, with stunning views across the town and the Rhine. It is all uphill but it is a steady incline and the paths are not challenging or difficult. Just take some water and a hat. Allow about 30 mins. HIGHLIGHTS: • Vineyards - the vineyards you walk through all belong to the abbey, making it quite unique. It is a working abbey and the community of 48 Benedictine nuns continue to live there, working and managing these vineyards and making and selling the wines, just like they have always done. • Wine-tasting – the abbey shop sells a big range of gifts, books and cards. Best of all they do wine-tasting. We bought a couple of bottles, despite having to carry them for the next few hours on the rest of our walk (we couldn’t help ourselves) • Chapel – I loved this peaceful, contemplative space. It has a small but beautiful courtyard garden, a large mosaic altarpiece and panels showing the life of the founder, St Hildegard of Bingen. It was a very special place. • The abbey’s information centre deserves a mention too. It was so well set out, with excellent information on the abbey, the lives of the nuns and St Hildegard, the founder. Much of the information was either very moving or inspiring. I found myself spending much more time than I expected, reading and reflecting. • St Hildegard – the woman herself is pretty impressive. Founding the abbey in 1165, she was also a writer, composer, polymath, philosopher, pharmacist and early natural scientist. I felt quite drawn to know more about her. • Pilgrim’s Path - from the abbey we extended our walk by joining the Pilgrims Path. Just follow the blue and green ‘Rheingauer Klostersteig’ signs (see photo of signs). You’ll need to allow a few hours. This was a long but fabulous walk which took us around the mountain, through farming land, then forest and finally down to Assmannshausen, where we caught the train home. NOTE: Entry to the abbey is free. There is a nice looking café (although we didn't stop here). The abbey also offers retreats and seminars.

We were thrilled to see and listen to mechanical music boxes, instruments, player pianos and band-in-a-box marvels from all over the world and from throughout history. The amazing condition and variety of music still available for many of the instruments in their collection was surprising. I have never seen or heard so many different types of mechanical music in one place. Great for kids as well as adults.

We rode the Seilbahn down to Rudesheim after having hiked the area most of the day. We found the service to be friendly and the tram was a great, smooth ride with gorgeous views. We highly recommend it!
