Their exemplary contribution to active village revitalization and their outstanding personal commitment qualify the owners of the Winzerhotel Himmelacker in Alzey-Dautenheim for the award in the “Art and Culture” category. Within the historic walls of the Bernhard Storr Winery, a stylish winemaker’s hotel was established in 1993—a hotel that has been recognized by the German Tourism Association for its professional management.

“With their theater barn and the newly constructed open-air stage, the winemaking family excellently promotes art and culture in the Rheinhessen region through numerous performances and cultural events throughout the year,” according to the expert jury’s unanimous statement. The atmosphere is appealing and authentic, and the cultural offerings demonstrate professionalism.
