HISTORY I

The Annaberg resort

heart of the palatine wine-country

1804 - 2004

tranquility among woods and wines

Welcome to the historic Annaberg vineyard which celebrated its 200 year
history in 2004.

In 1804, the era of the Counts of Leiningen drew to a close, and a small tiled
cottage fell under French authority. On 21 December 1804, the cottage was
auctioned, being acquired by Georg Kochenburger of Kallstadt, and Louis Wolf
from Wachenheim. At the same auction they bought a large vineyard adjacent to
the property.

The property, which lies on the edge of the Rhine Valley with wonderful views as
far as Heidelberg, was then acquired by Johann Adam Fitz. He built a country
house, increased the estate's size, and named it after his beloved wife Anna.
Fitz died in 1855, passing ownership to Anna; their son Louis took over the
estate and a newly developed tile kiln in 1870.
