    The castle Reuland belongs to the largest castle ruins of the Eifel.
    Even Charlemagne is said to have been here for a time.

      Archaeological research showed that the castle square was already in use in the 10th century. The Romans had already built a permanent fort where only the castle ruins still stand today. The oldest discovered foundations date back to the 12th century, when the castle was used as a residence for the noble family "von Rulant". In the 13th century there was a castle ring, which was surrounded by a moat. A tower already existed in the northwest corner. In the 14th century the Bering was rebuilt and the keep was built.

        The ruins of the castle of Reuland radiate power. Looking over the valley it gives an impression of how this stronghold dominated the area. Free to enter and a must visit if you are touring the area.
