    Nice photo spot. I had never found the right perspective until now.

      The Nürburg is the highest castle in Rhineland-Palatinate (676.5 m above sea level). It was built on a weathered volcanic crater made of basalt. The basalt rock gave the mountain and the castle their name: Mons Nore, the black mountain. It also provided the building material for the castle. In clear weather, the keep (39 m high) offers a fantastic panoramic view of the entire Eifel, but also into the heart of the "Green Hell", the Nordschleife, which winds its way through the forests around the castle.
