Darmstadt Government District

This European economic capital on the Main River features world-class museums, sweet apple wine and Germany’s only skyscrapers.

This “spa town” is known for its hot springs, but there are also museums, parks, architecture and shops to explore.

Find out about the region’s variety of wine grapes, stroll along cobbled lanes in the Old Town and ride a gondola over the stunning terrain.

Gaze up at spires of historic churches, explore an abbey and admire a riverside castle in the City of Wine and Roses.
