Südliche Weinstraße, Wine district in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.
The Südliche Weinstraße extends across 85 kilometers between the Palatinate Forest and Rhine Valley, featuring numerous vineyards and small wine-producing villages.
The establishment of wine cultivation in this region dates back to Roman times, with medieval castles positioned strategically along the route for protection.
Throughout the district, local wine festivals celebrate harvests with traditional Palatinate music, regional foods, and guided tastings by wine producers.
Visitors can access the district through Landau's central station, with regular train connections to major German cities and dedicated cycling paths between villages.
The Mediterranean climate of this district allows for growing figs, kiwis, and almonds alongside grape varieties, making it Germany's warmest wine-producing region.
