Sommerach is a municipality in the Lower Franconian district of Kitzingen and a member of the Volkach administrative community. Sommerach's history is closely linked to the Benedictine monastery in Münsterschwarzach, which ruled the town for a long time. In addition, several other noble families, including the Margraves of Brandenburg-Ansbach, were wealthy here. With 232 hectares of vineyards (2017), Sommerach is one of the larger wine-growing communities in the Franconian wine-growing region. With the Sommeracher Katzenkopf, the community owns one of the best-known vineyards in Franconia. The wine characterizes the village in many ways. In 1901, the oldest wine cooperative in Franconia was founded here. The center of the festival calendar is the annually celebrated Altort Wine Festival. The centuries-old cultural landscape of the wine island with the vine-covered Kreuzberg in the center attracts tourists just as much as the largely preserved early modern town center, which has won several awards. Sommerach has a partially still existing town wall with two intact gates. The center of the town is the Catholic Eucharius Church. In addition, many Häcker houses and last but not least the former official buildings of the village lords form an ensemble worth seeing. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sommerach

The Kitzingen Old Main Bridge is one of the six medieval Main Bridges in Lower Franconia. The bridge was first mentioned in documents in 1300 when it replaced a ferry. The inner bridge gate was also the eastern gate of the city wall. The original construction with twelve arches had to be adapted to shipping in 1955 and partially modified. The stone sculpture on the bridge is by Richard Rother (1925). The Old Main Bridge is closed to motorized traffic and offers a wonderful view of the city. In summer, locals and guests enjoy the city shop on the bridge. (https://www.stadt-kitzingen.de/Tourism/Seeing Values)

I particularly liked the route from Nordheim to Sommerach and back. Vineyards everywhere and in the most beautiful colors in autumn. The little town of Sommerach is also very charming. All the outdoor areas of the pubs were beautifully set and the inner courtyards of the winegrowers were beautifully decorated for autumn. Unfortunately, you can't drink a 'Schöpple' everywhere :-)
