Bendorf

Bendorf's most famous sight is the Sayner Hütte, a former ironworks from the 19th century that now serves as a museum. Here visitors can learn more about the history of the industry and walk through the beautiful park.

Another highlight for tourists are the many hiking trails around Bendorf. The well-known Rheinsteig trail passes right by the town and offers spectacular views of the river as well as castles and palaces along the way.

Cultural highlights can also be discovered in Bendorf - for example Engers Castle or Marienburg Monastery, both rich in historical significance and architectural splendour.

For gourmets, a visit to the weekly market is a must: Here you will find fresh products from the region such as fruit, vegetables or wine. Bendorf also has a lot to offer in terms of culinary delights - be sure to try local specialities such as Saumagen or Riesling wines!

If it rains, we recommend a visit to the Westerwald Ceramics Museum in Höhr-Grenzhausen (only a few kilometres away), where you can learn all about traditional pottery and even make your own pieces.

In summer, a visit to the banks of the Rhine is a good idea, where you can swim, go boating or simply enjoy the sun. In winter, on the other hand, the nearby skiing area in the Westerwald beckons with its numerous slopes.

All in all, Bendorf is definitely worth a trip - no matter what time of year! Let our Travel Guide inspire you and discover this idyllic town on the Rhine for yourself.
