Exciting guided tour about the legend of the "Berncasteler Doctors".
A popular legend in the Moselle town states that in the 14th century, the Archbishop Elector Boemund II of Trier fell seriously ill with a fever during a stay at Landshut Castle. No medication helped and none of his famous doctors had an answer.
An old winemaker came to the elector with a small barrel of his best wine and told him that this wine was the best medicine. After consuming it, the elector was cured. As a sign that this wine was "the true Doctor," the vineyard received the high honor from the elector to be allowed to call itself "Berncasteler Doctor" from then on.
In the Footsteps of a Legend
This is how the "Bernkasteler Doctor" got its name. This legend inspired us to create a special kind of tour: the “City Tour with the Bernkasteler Doctor.” The 90-minute tour through the old town of Bernkastel includes – as the name suggests - 2 glasses of Doctor wine.
