According to tradition, you can bring your snack to the Riegeler beer garden. The drinks can of course be ordered on site. It must be called the former Riegeler brewery, no beer has been brewed here since 2003: riegeler-biergarten.de.

Riegeler Brewery Castle and Messmer Art Hall

Highlight • Monument

The old brewery site, the brewery castle 🏰, is located directly on the banks of the Elz. Today the beer 🍻 is brewed in the brewery in Donaueschingen (Fürstenberg), which acquired it in 2️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣.

The natural rock cellar 🪨 was once used for the natural storage and maturation of the beer 🍺 at a constant 12 degrees.

---------------
People now live in the magnificent and listed "brewery castle". Lofts have been built that were sold out before they were even completed. The Messmer Art Gallery is housed in the front part of the building, which shows temporary exhibitions on classical modernism and contemporary art.

There is even a small brewery again: Römerbräu keeps the Riegel brewing tradition alive, albeit on a smaller scale.

Cycle path between Bahlingen and Riegel

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

In addition to the cycle path on the railway line, another scenic alternative to driving on the L116 state road, where there is no cycle path. Always along the Dreisam.
In Riegel the Dreisam meets four other rivers or watercourses.
