Historic Hermann, Missouri Originally founded by German settlers in the mid 1800's, Hermann is known for its rich German heritage characterized by annual month-long Maifest and Oktoberfest celebrations, the downtown historic district where mostly original brick buildings hug the sidewalks in traditional German style, and a great number of wineries which has earned Hermann the title of "Missouri Wine Country." One New York Times article described Hermann saying "The village, particularly its 10-block historic section, is neither a restoration nor a museum-piece setting; it is a living, working community passed down from the early 19th century with its architecture and style largely intact." Designated as "Missouri's Most Beautiful Town", Hermann is an idyllic, almost magical small town along the Missouri River. The unparalleled scenic beauty of the area is characterized by steep hills, cliffs, and low valleys, providing breathtaking views from any point. Drive, walk, or take the trolley through the town and you will immediately feel the Old World charm of the historic buildings and the small town friendliness of the residents and local business owners. While nestled in its own private nook, Hermann is in an ideal location because of its centrality in the state. The town is only an hour from Saint Louis and Columbia, 45 minutes from Jefferson City, and 2.5 hours from Kansas City. This boosts the thriving tourism industry as well as provides residents with the country lifestyle while having easy access to the amenities of the city. People from all over the state, country, and even world come to visit and move to Hermann to experience its natural beauty, small town friendliness, and of course- the wine!
