Very nice view of Stolzenfels Castle. It towers very powerfully over the Rhine.

Built as Stolzenfels Castle by Trier Archbishop Arnold von Isenburg, it was used to collect the Rhine toll until 1412. In 1689 the French destroyed the castle during the War of the Palatinate Succession. After Napoleon's defeat, the complex became the property of the city of Koblenz. In 1823 the city finally donated the ruins to the Prussian Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm.
After 1919, Stolzenfels Castle became the property of the Prussian Administration of State Palaces and Gardens. Today it belongs to the state of Rhineland-Palatinate.translated by•January 19, 2024
