Hermann, Missouri: German Heritage and Wine Country
Many people don't associate Missouri with wine country, but they'd be wrong.
Hermann, Missouri - established in 1837 by Germans who settled here from Philadelphia - sits alongside the once-bustling Missouri River.
The early German settlers brought their wine traditions with them and this small town is now known for its quirky architecture and wineries which you'll explore today.
After a pretty drive to Columbia, the afternoon and evening will be spent getting to know this small city with its historical university and great restaurants.
