These vines are truly veterans: The "Rhodter Rosengarten" is already over 400 years old – and still produces wine. According to oral tradition, the vineyard in the wine village of Rhodt unter Rietburg is said to have existed even before the Thirty Years' War, which took place from 1618 to 1648. This makes the Rosengarten the oldest still-producing vineyard in the Palatinate – if not the world. To this day, 300 vines stand on the approximately 600 square meter area, mostly Traminer vines with individual Silvaner stocks in between. Who planted them is not known. However, wine was probably grown in Rhodt unter Rietburg as early as Roman times – in any case, the place has been known for its Traminer since the Middle Ages.

Holy Cross Catholic Parish Church; built in the early 15th century as a three-aisled Gothic basilica with a cloister on the site of an earlier, likely dilapidated, mendicant church of the Augustinian Hermits. After the expulsion of the monks in 1794, it was deconsecrated and subsequently used as a warehouse, concert hall, and exhibition space. In 1893, following the dissolution of the shared use of the church by both Catholic and Protestant congregations at the collegiate church, it passed into Catholic hands and became a parish church. In 1911, it became a branch church of St. Mary's. Since 1948, it has again been a parish church. The chancel was destroyed by bombing in 1945. During the restoration from 1962 to 1964, a concrete gallery was installed and the chancel was redesigned to meet new liturgical requirements. In the 1980s, the cloister was restored, and the east wing (containing the parish center) was rebuilt. ; ... https://www.landau-tourismus.de/deskline-suchfilter-2/infosystem/Kath-Pfarrkirche-Heilig-Kreuz-Augustinerkirche/infosystem.html#

The German Gate – also known as the Lower Gate, formerly called the Porte d’Allemagne – is a structure in Landau in der Pfalz. It is a listed building. It marks the northern end of the old town and is located at Neustadter Straße 2. Immediately to the south are Untertorplatz (Lower Gate Square) and the war memorial. The gate, built between 1688 and 1691, together with its southern counterpart – the French Gate – forms one of two remaining sections of the main wall of the Landau fortress. Until well into the 19th century, it was only one of two ways to enter or leave the city. Partly because this became an increasing obstacle after the opening of the Neustadt–Wissembourg railway line and the city's train station, the fortress was abandoned in 1871, and another, eastern entrance was created in the form of what is now Ostbahnstraße (East Railway Street). The structure is a Baroque building featuring a gateway and a three-aisled hall facing the town. It is also adorned with tympanum reliefs. The architect responsible for its design was Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deutsches_Tor_(Landau_in_der_Pfalz)
