Neustadt an der Weinstraße, Wine region capital in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany

The city extends across 117 square kilometers along the German Wine Route, bordered by the Palatinate Forest and Upper Rhine Plain.

Founded in 1220 by Count Palatine Louis I, Neustadt received its town privileges in 1275 and housed Heidelberg University from 1578 to 1583.

The German Wine Festival takes place annually in the city, where the national Wine Queen receives her crown in a traditional ceremony.

The central train station connects to Frankfurt, Mannheim, and Ludwigshafen, with regional trains departing every 30 minutes during peak hours.

The Casimirianum, a former university building from 1578, now serves as a convention center hosting wine trade events and regional conferences.
