Among the towns of Rhineland-Palatinate, Oppenheim stands out for St Catherine’s Church, a major Gothic landmark rising above the Rhine. The town lies on the river’s west bank in Rhenish Hesse, a wine-growing area whose vineyards shape the slopes behind its old centre. Oppenheim’s medieval streets lead to the church and to the ruins of Landskron Castle, which overlook the town from a hill. Beneath the historic centre, the Oppenheim cellar labyrinth preserves a network of underground passages and wine cellars, reflecting the long local wine trade.
