Rhineland, MO

Rhineland has one of the most unique stories along the Missouri River. Founded by German settlers in the nineteenth century, the entire community banded together after the historic flood of 1993 and moved every home a mile and a half up the hillside. Today, the town sits safely on high ground with sweeping views across the river bottoms, while Route 94 winds past the original valley site below.

For anyone looking to relocate to wine country, Rhineland delivers a quiet, rural lifestyle with plenty of small-town resilience. You have quick access to the Katy Trail for weekend biking, and Hermann is just a short drive across the river for dining, groceries, and festivals. Kids attend the Gasconade County R-I schools, and the neighborhood preserves a peaceful, close-knit atmosphere shaped by generations of looking out for one another.
