Wine Villages in Baden-Württemberg

The Weinsüden and its Wine Villages

Long Wine Tradition. Short Distances to the Glass.

Weinstadt, Weinsberg, the Rebland - all clear! The wine villages” of the "Weinsüden" are Baden-Württemberg's flagships for a strong connection to wine, a long winegrowing culture and an exemplary traditional connection to viticulture. In the Southwest, you will find some of the most beautiful and romantic wine villages in Germany.
Expect to see terraced slopes, romantic hillside towns, and historical gems with charming half-timbered houses. And even if “wine” isn’t in every village’s name, there’s no shortage of opportunities to taste wines, discover cozy vinotheques, or visit seasonal “Besen” and “Straußen” taverns in Baden-Württemberg.
