Oberwesel

Oberwesel lies on the Rhine in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, where steep vineyard slopes rise above the river in the UNESCO-listed Upper Middle Rhine Valley. The town is enclosed by an extensive medieval wall circuit with 16 defensive towers, giving its historic core a distinctly fortified character. Schönburg Castle stands on the hillside above Oberwesel, while the Gothic Liebfrauenkirche is known for its frescoes and religious art. Rhine wine is central to local life, with vineyards shaping both the economy and the seasonal rhythm of the valley.
