Bad Durkheim

Built around a settlement on the Isenach River, Bad Dürkheim grew into a spa and wine town on the eastern edge of the Palatinate Forest. Vineyards of the Pfalz meet wooded slopes here, while the Upper Rhine Plain begins a short distance to the east. The town is known for the annual Dürkheimer Wurstmarkt, a major wine festival held among large wine barrels rather than a conventional fairground. Above the centre stand the ruins of Limburg Abbey, a Romanesque former Benedictine monastery. Trace how Bad Dürkheim connects the Palatinate Forest and the Rhine plain by browsing webcams nearby.
