Kunstreiseführer Rheinhessen

Rheinhessen lies to the left of the Rhine, i.e. not in Hesse, but in Rhineland-Palatinate, more precisely between the Rhineland and the Palatinate. While the Rhineland was Prussian in the 19th century and the Palatinate was Bavarian, the hilly region in the Rhine bend between Worms, Mainz and Bingen belonged to Hesse until 1945 - hence the name Rheinhessen. Volker Gallé's art travel guide to Rheinhessen is an indispensable guide for tourists and a reference work for "Rhoihesse" to get to know their homeland better. It goes into the history of the landscape, art and culture, presents the art monuments, outlines nature and familiarises readers with customs. Tours of Mainz, Worms, Bingen, Alzey and Oppenheim enable day and weekend tourists to plan their holidays quickly. All the communities are presented with their characteristic features. A detailed service section offers a multitude of tips on leisure activities.
