    Beautiful views, the Rhein in the backdrop
    Shane C.

    I'm so surprised this isn't rated higher! Definitely worth the stop, people! This is one of the most beautiful stops we saw in the Rheingau wine region of Germany. We spent the entire afternoon here just relaxing, and couldn't have been happier. Luckily the weather was beautiful, and was complimented by the best selection of Rieslings! The salmon was cooked and presented really well. Unfortunately, we did not take any pictures of our lunch. We didn't get the full experience of the tour + 3-course dinner, but absolutely plan to come back to experience it. That is owed to the breathtaking views, the quality of the wine, and how nice the people were.

    Beautiful! We drove down from Frankfurt and took the ferry across the Rhine to get here. It was worth the trip. The grounds are breathtaking. As we came up the drive, we were impressed with the limited view of the palace and its organized parking. We easily found a spot and approached the building which required pics along the way. As we looked to our left, we saw the vines laid out as far as the eye could see. To the right was more of the building and straight ahead was a view of the courtyard and valley stretched again, as far as the eye could see. When we walked to the edge, again more vines rolling over the hills. It was so picturesque. The only disappointment was the palace is closed to the public as the family still lives in it. The closest description I can offer is a memory of Tuscany from many years ago. This is a memory I will keep for a long time.

    Tucked away in the hills that overlook the Rhine, you'll find Kloster Eberbach. It is stunning in…read moreits serenity and impressive to think that it was built long ago without the help of modern construction. You may recognize it from the 1986 Sean Connery film "The name of the Rose". My family is emigrated from a city just down the road and that used to be a part of the Monastery's estate, and I'm fortunate to stay in touch with the relatives that stayed behind. On Christmas day last year when everything is closed (and the parents wanted to tend to the Christmas roast -- think the same fuss as a Thanksgiving turkey), we young 'uns headed down to the Abbey to check things out. The buildings were closed, but the grounds were open, and we and some other locals meandered around, finally winding up by the sheep and goats. One little guy kept poking his head out to have his chin scratched, and I was happy to oblige him. I'll look forward to my next visit, hopefully on a day when the place is open so I can tour it and learn more about the Abbey's history!

    This was my first time visiting a previous monastery dwelling and was surprised to know that only…read more120 monks lived on such a beautiful estate. I came here with a group from work for a team building adventure. We started out breaking into teams for a scavenger hunt around the monastery; then hiked up the top of the hill to see a breath taking view of the countryside and had a light snack at the summit; then returning for a formal tour of the monastery followed by wine tasting in the cellar; and finally we had dinner here at their restaurant to wrap up our 5 hour excursion. Today this place is used for festivals and concerts but you get an appreciation of the dedication and effort of a few men that resulted in an amazing historical landmark. There was also a movie filmed here in the 1980's by Sean Connery. This was a humbling and fantastic experience all rolled into one great adventure that I would highly recommend as a must see place that you will appreciate.
