The Town of Boppard The town of Boppard lies in the middle of the UNESCO World Heritage area at the upper part of the Middle Rhine not far from the Loreley. The past and the present merge here into picturesque scenes of wine-growing and inn-keeping, fishing and ferrying and those vital tradi-tions live on, in and around the ancient city. The town of Boppard offers you the best of opportunities to get to know the surrounding valley in all its many facetted tradition. Our cultural treasures are waiting here for you to enjoy them, and we are looking forward to seeing you!
