Weinhaus Heilig Grab

Rhine Valley


Across the street from the Hauptbahnhof, Boppard’s oldest wine tavern, dating back over 200 years, offers a cosy setting for sipping ‘Holy Sepulchre’ Rieslings. In summer you can sit outside under the chestnut trees, where live music plays on weekends. It also has five guest rooms (doubles €73 to €89).
