Travel Guide

Luxurious spas, mineral water, medieval streets and regional red wines combine to make this city a popular tourist destination.

The capital city of the Ahrweiler district is made up of Bad Neuenahr town, which is known for its hot springs, and Ahrweiler. The two towns were united in 1969. Stroll through the picturesque Old Town of Ahrweiler, which was burned by the French in 1689. The area was rebuilt and is a popular spot for a quiet walk. 

You will find a number of small boutiques, restaurants, cafes and shops in the area, along with medieval fortifications.

Tour the Red Wine Trail, a one-way road, famous for its scenic beauty as well as its local wines. The trail works its way through the Ahr Valley, which features a number of walking and cycling paths.

Visit the city’s many museums, which pay tribute to the area’s history and culture. Learn about ancient Roman daily life at Museum Roemervilla, a 1st-century Roman villa, which has been well preserved. Visitors can walk through rooms in the villa and see murals on walls or take a guided tour to learn about bathing slaves of the Roman era.

At the Town Museum, watch programs and documentaries which teach visitors about the town’s history throughout the 19th century. The museum houses medieval religious art, ancient Roman artifacts and the riches of the riflemen’s guild. Find out about the history of rifles in the region at the Schützenmuseum, which exhibits the traditions of the Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler rifle associations. Visit Municipal Archives, located in a villa of an old aristocratic family, which contains historic information about the city.

Head to the Apollinaris Spring to see the Bad Neuenahr sparkling mineral water. The spring was discovered by chance on a vineyard east of the town and is now open to the public. A fountain of the spring water is located outside the factory where people are welcome to help themselves.

Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler is accessible by train from major German cities. Public transportation and shuttle bus services are available to the city from the Cologne/Bonn airport.

Not bad.
"First of all, the staff is absolutely amazing. Courteous, friendly, professional. My room was a bit of a mixed experience. It was spacious and well appointed, but the carpet was wrinkled in a way that it looked like it hadn’t been laid properly. The water temperature in the shower fluctuated between ..."

"My stay was good, but not perfect. The reception is very friendly, very helpful. The rooms were nice but few things were missing; no tissues, no AC while the room was very warm, no shower gels. The shower area had a half glass door which made it difficult to shower without having the water being ..."
