Weinbau in Feuerbach
Der Anbau von Wein hat in Feuerbach eine alte Tradition. Lange war der Verkauf von Riesling, Silvaner und Trollinger für viele Feuerbacher ein unverzichtbarer Teil ihres Einkommens. 1850 erstreckten sich die Feuerbacher Weinberge über 143 Hektar. Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts war der Ort ein beliebtes Ausflugsziel. Vor allem am Wochenende wanderten viele Stuttgarter über die Feuerbacher Heide hierher, um ein paar Viertele zu genießen oder um gleich einen ganzen Vorrat an „Grondechtem“ zu ordern. Heute werden die Reben an den Hängen rings um Feuerbach immerhin noch auf 11 Hektar Land angebaut. Dank des professionellen Engagements der Erzeuger entwickeln sich die Feuerbacher Tropfen beständig weiter. Sie sind bei weitem nicht nur in den Besenwirtschaften und am Kelterfest sehr geschätzt.

Die Figur des Wengerter wurde gestiftet vom Wein-, Obst- und Gartenbauverein Feuerbach.

vineyards covered more than 143 hectares. At the beginning of the 20th century, the town was a popular destination. Especially on weekends, many Stuttgart residents walked across the Feuerbach Heath to enjoy a few glasses of wine or order an entire supply of genuine local wine. Today, vines are still cultivated on 11 hectares of land on the slopes surrounding Feuerbach. Thanks to the professional commitment of the producers, Feuerbach’s wines continue to improve. They are highly appreciated far beyond the local wine taverns and the annual wine-press festival.

The winegrower figure was donated by the Feuerbach Wine, Fruit and Horticultural Association.
