Ipsheim

Highlight • Settlement

The cozy market town of Ipsheim is all about wine. All sorts of innkeepers and winemakers invite you all year round for a good drop of Franconian wine. The highlight for wandering wine lovers is the Ipsheim Wine Hiking Day, to which winegrowers in the region invite each year.

Hoheneck Castle

Highlight • Castle

Unfortunately, you can not visit the castle from the inside anymore. On a tour around the moat, you can still collect many impressions and enjoy the magnificent view. From time to time the castle opens its doors as part of events - you will find the dates on the homepage.

Chapel in the Vineyard at Ipsheim

Highlight • Religious Site

The small chapel in the vineyard below Hoheneck Castle was built by the Beck family from Neustadt a. d. Aisch erected in 2010 in just four months. This makes the vineyards near Ipsheim a jewel! It is the only chapel of this kind in a wide area. Visitors are given the opportunity to pause, think, find peace and quiet. Because of the remote location, the chapel is mostly closed. In addition to church events, it is also opened during vineyard tours.

Hospitality House of the Winegrowers' Association

Highlight • Restaurant

Very tasty food and cake, delicious wine and very friendly winemakers. Every weekend a different winemaker from the area is in charge of catering. The PDF list is available online (see below).
The list also contains telephone numbers if you want to reserve a table in advance. Recommended on nice Sundays.
The swing no longer exists.

Ipsheim Vineyards and Hoheneck Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

On the paths through the Ipsheim vineyards, information boards provide information about the opposite grape varieties, about natural viticulture, the soil relief and about the Hoheneck Castle, which is owned by the city of Nuremberg. The well-tended vineyards, framed by wooded fringes and ecologically valuable grasslands, invite you to exciting hikes all year round, which can be crowned with a pint of "Ipsheimer Hoheneck Castle", because on beautiful Sundays and public holidays the members of the winegrowing association take place directly in the vineyards in the "Weinnest" hospitality house, guests from near and far are also entertained.
