In the heart of the romantic Rhine Valley, a small town invites you to visit. A town with a long history, medieval character, and an idyllic atmosphere. Surrounded by vines and roses, it is guarded by the imposing Marksburg Castle, which towers high above the winding streets of the old town. It is the only undestroyed hilltop castle on the Middle Rhine. Numerous remnants of the medieval town fortifications can still be found in Braubach, including the historic St. Barbara Church from the 13th century, whose tower was a corner fortification of the city wall.
