The history and development of Schloss Wackerbarth into Europe's first adventure winery
The roots of Schloss Wackerbarth lie in the centuries-old tradition of enjoyment in Saxony's Elbe Valley: viticulture has shaped the landscape and the lives of the people here for more than 850 years; 180 years ago, cellar masters from Reims brought the French art of sparkling wine production to Radebeul.
Our history is also closely linked to the Saxon court during the heyday of the Dresden Baroque. Between 1727 and 1730, August Christoph Count von Wackerbarth had a baroque palace and garden complex built at the foot of the Radebeul vineyards. The count was one of Augustus the Strong's closest confidants and held numerous important offices: To this day, the Field Marshal General and Privy Councillor is remembered above all as a builder - as Governor of Dresden, he is also known as the "director of the Dresden Baroque".
It is thanks to the eventful history of the state of Saxony and our baroque estate - with more than 20 changes of ownership up to the beginning of the 20th century - that Europe's first adventure winery was established here over 20 years ago.
THE SPARKLING WORLD OF SCHLOSS WACKERBARTH –
A FEAST FOR THE SENSES
Schloss Wackerbarth, located in the little town of Radebeul between Dresden and Meissen, houses Saxony’s oldest production facility for sparkling wine (Sekt). It is also Europe’s first vineyard to allow its guests to discover and experience the world of wine first-hand.
Dresden is well-known as the center of baroque joie de vivre. This beautiful Mediterranean style palace is just one of the many pleasure palaces and country residences erected near Dresden by Augustus the Strong. Since the 18th century, Schloss Wackerbarth has attracted connoisseurs and lovers of the Mediterranean way of life. Romantically located amid the vineyards outside the charming town of Radebeul, Schloss Wackerbarth handcrafts its awardwinning wines and sparkling wine to perfection. You and your guests can experience a feast for all the senses.
Tours through the state-owned winery are conducted daily, bringing our guests closer to Saxony wine and sparkling wine. A gourmet meal in our exquisite restaurant, prepared by our head cook, provides the perfect culmination to your visit to Schloss Wackerbarth.
Now extensively renovated, this sumptuous residence with its Baroque palace and terraced vineyards offers the perfect setting for all your social events. With elegantly decorated conference rooms in the palace, the magnificent Belvedere suitable for private receptions and gourmet banquets in our historic wine cellars, Schloss Wackerbarth offers its guests the opportunity to live the courtly pleasures and enchanting atmosphere like Augustus the Strong.
