    Directly on the banks of the Rhine rise the picturesque ruins of the Imperial Palace of the legendary Emperor Frederick Barbarossa. The palace, originally dating back to the 10th century, was expanded under Emperor Henry III and later by Emperor Barbarossa after he relocated the Rhine toll from the Netherlands to Kaiserswerth, as he needed a fortress dominating the Rhine.

    The location for the palace was well chosen. Because the Rhine forms a gentle curve here, it can be clearly seen over a long stretch. Even today, the castle complex consists of imposing walls up to four and a half meters thick. The idyllic castle path offers a magnificent view of the palace.

      You are not allowed to take the bike with you to or into the courtyard, but you have to connect it outside. You can not see it so unattended.

        The Kaiserpfalz is fenced. I don't know the exact opening times, but you shouldn't go in at night.
