Accommodation in Bernkastel-Kues

Bernkastel-Kues: Fachwerk, Riesling und Burg Landshut

Bernkastel-Kues is the heart of the Middle Moselle: on the Bernkastel side, pointed half-timbered houses crowd around the market square with its tiny Spitzhäuschen, high above them watches the ruin of Landshut Castle, and across the river in Kues the polymath Nicholas of Cusa was born, whose foundation exists to this day.

You sleep in the middle of the wine town: traditional houses like the Zur Post and the Drei Könige are steps from the market square, the Kelterhaus combines lodging with winery atmosphere, and with winegrowing families like Kees Kieren you stay right at the source of the Riesling. Add classics like the Alt Cues and the Panorama overlooking the Moselle valley.

From Landshut Castle the view sweeps over the famous Moselle loop, tastings and seasonal wine taverns are part of daily life, and the Moselle cycle path runs along the very bank. Ask the host directly and you book commission-free – learning which vinothek pours the Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling by the glass.
