Discover the Variety of Unparalleled Diversity

Experience More Holiday: Have you ever been to Mainz, Koblenz or Kaiserslautern? Do you know Ludwigshafen, Speyer, Trier or Worms? You will surely have heard of the famous Loreley on the Rhine with its countless castles and palaces, the romantic Moselle valley or the healthy air in the Westerwald, Hunsrück and Eifel regions. All this and much more awaits you in Rhineland-Palatinate.

Alone, as a couple, with the family or in a group, waking to the sound of a cock crowing on a farm or enjoying a lie-in at a luxury hotel, cycling through the countryside or relaxing at the thermal baths – the options are almost limitless in Rhineland-Palatinate.

Enjoy the variety, from walking to wine, cycling to farm holidays, city life to camping. Discover a land with internationally renowned culture: Speyer, Worms, Mainz and Trier cathedrals, ancient Roman buildings in Trier and many other places, 500 castles and dense forests.

Culture and Events - What an Experience: Culture covers history and tradition, as well as modern times and “alternative culture”. There are castles and palaces, picturesque villages and historical towns, writers and philosophers, composers and kings. But the modern cultural scene in Rhineland-Palatinate is no less exciting.

There’s a lot going on with more than 1,500 events during the Rhineland-Palatinate “Summer of Culture” festival every year, unique events on the water at five “Rhine in Flames” festivals, and other events from classical concerts to major theatre, from traditional winegrowers’ festivals to medieval Christmas markets, from “Nature-one-Rave” at the Pydna-Basis centre to the “Rock am Ring” music festival.

Rhineland-Palatinate certainly lives up to its claim of being an “active state for active people”. Have fun!
