"The summit of the mountain sparkles in the evening sunshine," says Heinrich Heine's Loreley poem. On the Loreley plateau, the summit of the mountain now literally glitters: The so-called Myth Hall, featuring the Glass Rock, was opened there on Thursday, July 10, 2025.

These two elements are part of the newly designed Loreley plateau and are intended to bring the myth of the Loreley to life.

Perhaps also good to know: in the rear area of the Mythenhalle towards the emergency exit there are toilets and a baby changing room.
