Hof Nürnberg

Hof Nürnberg is a fortified farm and cultural monument arranged as a multi-building complex around a central courtyard, nestled among vineyards east of Wiesbaden. The estate sits at approximately 197 meters elevation and houses both a restaurant and a wine production operation today.

In the 14th century, Nassau counts built this fortified complex to protect their territories against growing power from the Mainz archbishopric. The farm served as part of their defensive strategy in this border region during the medieval period.

The farm takes its name from historical significance and reflects this through its traditional layout and position in wine country. Its spaces and courtyard today convey the feel of a long-standing vineyard estate where wine and regional cooking shape the character of the place.

The farm sits among vineyards and is reachable from Wiesbaden, with its elevated position offering views of the surrounding wine country. The best time to visit is during harvest season or on weekends, when the restaurant operates at full capacity and terrace seating is actively used.

A notable visitor signed the guestbook in 1815, an event commemorated decades later with a memorial stone on the grounds. This stone remains at the site today and marks a literary moment in the farm's past.
