Restaurants in Rheinhessen: Mundart

If you are looking for excellent food, a friendly atmosphere and wonderful regional wine then this is the place to go: Mundart-restaurant in Saulheim. Definitely a place you would rather expect in Wiesbaden or Frankfurt than in "no name village". Not cheap, but the spot to celebrate a special occasion in a small setting. Since it is becoming increasingly popular you should make a reservation in advance. Enjoy the rich flavor of German food with an international touch and be surprised about the creative combinations the kitchen has to offer.

Restaurants in Rheinhessen: St. Antony

Lost in the middle of nowhere (an area which is called Rheinhessen by the locals) you will find a small village- among another 389 small villages of the area- called Rommersheim. It would not have found its way into this blog wouldn't it be for a small Restaurant called St. Antony which has been opened recently and is worth a visit if you are in the area around Wörrstadt anyhow.
Now, why would you want to be in that area if it wasn't for the wine which is grown in Rheinhessen and which is yet to be discovered by the international community.

Musikautomaten- Museum Bruchsal

Bruchsal, located 1 h drive south of Mainz has nothing much to offer, wouldn't it be for its beautiful castle Barockschloss Buchsal (Palace) with a really fascinating hidden treasure: the Deutsches Musikautomaten Museum (German Museum of Mechanical Musical Instruments).
Join a guided tour (which unfortunately is only available in German, takes approx. 1h) to listen to these art pieces of mechanical engineering, see the beautiful cabinets and experience the evolution of music performed by machines from the 16th century until today.
