Where people know how to celebrate

There are plenty of opportunities to celebrate in the Nahe valley. The mild climate, the cheerful landscape and especially the wine, make for the best conditions for "Kerben" (church fairs) which alternate with the local wine and vintage festivals. The local food here is robust. The upper Nahe area is the home of roasts on a spit over an open fire as well as the grilled roast known as "Schaukelbraten".

In "Sowerum" (Bad Sobernheim), there is a rather unusual dish, which is perhaps not to everyone's taste, the so-called "Krumbeeresupp un Quetschekuche" (potato soup with fresh plum cake). A special festival celebrated in autumn is the suckling pig meal. During the time of "Federweisser" (fermenting new wine), from the beginning of October until the end of November, many young pigs (maximum weight 20 kg.) end up in the ovens up and down the region. After being basted in butter, they are slowly baked with their filling, becoming a good accompanyment for the sweet Federweisser.
