Original Erlenbach Wine Festival

Original Erlenbach Wine Festival – a convivial and entertaining event held around the market square in the wine-growing community of Erlenbach. The Original Erlenbach Wine Festival takes place every August in Erlenbach near Heilbronn. It is one of the most traditional wine festivals in Württemberg. The festivities take place from Friday to Monday around Erlenbach Town Hall, between charming half-timbered houses and historic alleys. Hearty brass band music – convivial during the day and lively in the evening – creates a very special atmosphere. ### Program for the Erlenbach Wine Festival Spread across two stages and other venues, there is a wide-ranging program suitable for young and old alike: - Buttenlauf children & clubs | Saturday - Visit by the Württemberg Wine Queen | Saturday afternoon - "Grape Children's Program" | Sunday 1-5 p.m. Great entertainment for young guests with crafts & face painting - "Senior citizens' afternoon" | Monday with discounted prices - Election of the Onion Queen | Late Monday evening With a traditional crown made of parsley and onions and a matching scepter, she is bid farewell until her term of office ends at the next wine festival a year later. ### Specialties | Onion & parsley cake 120 bakers serve up delicious treats in historic bakehouses. The onion and parsley cakes are a real crowd-pleaser. The old bakehouse is traditionally heated with vine wood, which gives the cakes their special flavor. ### Wines & wineries Over 150 different wines from Kayberg can be tasted at 10 wine tasting stands, and 14 sparkling wines from local vintners can be sampled at the sparkling wine stand. ### Getting there & parking - Directly on the [Württemberger Wine Cycle Route](https://www.heilbronnerland.de/wein/weinwege-wuerttemberg/wuerttemberger-weinradweg) - Near the Weinsberg A6/A81 motorway junction, from the A81 exit 10 Weinsberg approx. 10 min/7 km - Car parking spaces along Talstraße | Sulmtalhalle area - Bus parking spaces on the L1101/Käppelesäcker ### Weinsüden Wine village of Erlenbach With 245 hectares of vineyards, Erlenbach is one of the largest wine-growing communities in Baden-Württemberg.
