    Very well received, nice hotel. Unfortunately offered for sale for years and therefore rarely open.

      Sauerburg - you have to first find it;) !! It was a coincidence that we passed it by. Unfortunately, the castle is privately owned and you can not visit it. But it is also impressive and worth seeing, because it was built so class on the mountain peak in the hinterland.
      Excerpt Wiki:
      The Sauerburg is the ruin of a hilltop castle above the Tiefenbach in the Taunus, which flows into the Wisper. It is located about four kilometers east of Kaub am Rhein near the town of Sauerthal in the Rhein-Lahn district in Rhineland-Palatinate. The border to Hesse is located east of the castle in the immediate vicinity.
      Since 2002, the Sauerburg is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley.
