- Traben-Trarbach
A guided tour of the underground type through the mystical twilight of the Traben-Trarbach underworld and the cellar vaults is an exciting discovery of the history of historic viticulture and the old cellar techniques for the production of the noblest wine in the world, Riesling.
The town of Traben-Trarbach was known around 1900 as one of the most significant wine trading towns. It is remarkable that the Art Nouveau town on the Mosel was, at that time, the second largest wine transshipment point in Europe, right after the large French city of Bordeaux.
The reason for this extraordinary position was the high demand for Riesling wines and exports, particularly to Great Britain and overseas. This led to the founding of over 100 wine companies. For this reason, in the second half of the 19th century, the capacity of the Traben-Trarbach wine cellars was increased, and like no other Mosel community, large areas of the town center were vaulted with cellars.
In this "special city tour," you will learn a lot about wine and cellar economy. As part of a tour that is offered throughout the year through the “Traben-Trarbach underworld,” you will have the opportunity to visit various separate historical cellars.
Here you save with your Mollie Guestcard.
