    Pfalz Wurstmarkt Bad Dürkheim

    The world's largest wine festival is called Wurstmarkt — Sausage Market. It was named by a bureaucrat in 1832 who hadn't noticed the wine had completely taken over. 600,000 visitors across two September weekends. The Dürkheimer Fass — built from 200 spruce trees in 1934 — holds 1.7 million litres and has been a restaurant since 1956; the Heidelberg Tun, famous enough for Goethe, is eight times smaller. Helmut Kohl served Saumagen here to Gorbachev, Thatcher, Reagan, and Clinton. The dimpled Dubbeglas was invented by Bad Dürkheim butchers whose hands were too greasy to hold a smooth glass.
