    The entire mountain was then part of a defensive belt surrounded by a wall, which also included the town of Bingium.

    In 355 AD the complex fell victim to the Alemanni. The centuries that followed were bad for the mountain. Castles were built and destroyed. The name "Burg Klopp" was first mentioned in a document in 1282. Klopp Castle was repeatedly destroyed by armed conflicts, most recently in 1689 during the Palatinate War of Succession. The picturesque ruins established themselves as a popular destination during the Rhine Romantic era.
