Roman fortification. From the 10th to the 13th century it was owned by the Archbishop of Mainz. The old fortress was converted into a residence in the 12th century. It then passed into the control of the Knights of R�desheim. A branch of these knights was the Br�mser. It was retaken by Archbishop Werner II von Eppenstein in 1281. The castle withstood a number of attacks. In 1640, during the Thirty Years' War, the top of the tower was destroyed by French troops under the command of Henri II d'Orl�ans, duc de Longueville. The Archbishopric sold it in 1803 and it has had several owners since then. The town of R�desheim bought the castle in 1941. Today it is a wine museum. It has a collection of wine presses and other wine paraphernalia. It has walls that are more than two-metre-thick and a metre-thick vault tower. Originally, it was right on the bank of the Rhine, surrounded by water.

The Rheinsteig from Wiesbaden by way of Lahnstein to Bonn leads through R�desheim�s municipal area by both the monastery and the Niederwalddenkmal. Another trail is the Riesling-Route. It leads along the Rhine and through R�desheim�s enchanting vineyards on the way to Wiesbaden.
A well known old tradition is the Weink�nigin (�Wine Queen�) with her princesses. Each year in the summertime, the R�desheim wine festival is held, whose highlights include the Wine Queen�s and the princesses� coronation.
The Wine Queen and her princesses represent the town of R�desheim and its wine in other communities and other winegrowing areas.
In the deeds held by the Counts of Katzenelnbogen, vineyards are already found in the R�desheim area in 1399: auf dem Berge (�on the mountain�), bei dem Morgen Marschalls (�near Marshal�s acre�)
