Bocksbeutelstrasse
The Bocksbeutelstrasse is a holiday route in Weinfranken . It belongs to the German wine routes and is named after the Bocksbeutel container that is typical for Franconian wine . The route consists of a larger part, which opens up the heartland of the Franconian wine region , the Lower Franconian Bocksbeutelstrasse and the much smaller Middle Franconian Bocksbeutelstrasse.
history
The initiative to build a wine route in Franconia came about after the Second World War; At that time it was assumed that wherever Franconian wine grows, the Bocksbeutelstrasse also runs. The focus was later on the highlights of the region, which can be found in the numerous cities, castles, monasteries and wine-growing villages.
