Neroberg: 500 years of winegrowing history

The Neroberg has been officially used as a vineyard since November 25, 1525. The 500th anniversary will be celebrated in 2025 with a varied program, special wines and atmospheric events.

View of vines

Today, the vineyard is owned by the city of Wiesbaden and has been managed exclusively by Weingut Kloster Eberbach since 2005. What began with a decree by Count Philipp von Nassau-Idstein has developed over the centuries into a central part of Wiesbaden's cultural and culinary history.

The monopollage produces high-quality wines full of character. They are an expression of centuries-old tradition and modern wine art. The oldest wine from this site - a Riesling from 1893 - is stored in the treasury of the Eberbach monastery.

Anniversary wine

2025 will be a very special vintage: the anniversary wine will have an exclusive special label. It will be available at the Tourist Information Center in 2026, among other places.
