Offenbach an der Queich

Offenbach an der Queich is a wine-producing municipality in the Südliche Weinstraße district, situated along the Queich River. The village sits among vineyards with traditional cellars and modern community services supporting its residents.

Founded in 784, the village developed into a wine-making center over many centuries in the Upper Rhine Valley region. This long history of grape growing shaped the community into what it is today.

Wine production shapes daily life here, with vineyards covering the slopes and cellar doors open to visitors who want to learn more. Local festivals celebrate this heritage throughout the year, bringing the community together around their wine-making roots.

The village is small and easy to explore on foot, with direct access to the surrounding vineyards and wine cellars. Nearby larger towns are accessible by car, and the community has basic facilities to welcome visitors.

The Mehrgenerationenhaus displays an unusual exterior sculpture made from books and writing pens, representing how different generations connect in the community. This creative installation often goes unnoticed by passing visitors but reflects the artistic spirit of the place.
