Zwirner significantly modified the medieval castle, giving it the characteristic appearance that is admired today. In doing so, he added, among other things, the 365 windows, 52 doors and 12 towers that made the castle the "Castle of the Year", a playful allusion to the days, weeks and months of a year.

Arenfels Castle has a long and fascinating history dating back to the 13th century. The castle was originally built around 1258 by Gerlach von Isenburg to secure and control the surrounding lands. However, the current castle dates largely from the 19th century, when the Prussian architect Ernst Friedrich Zwirner - known for his work on Cologne Cathedral - had the building redesigned in the neo-Gothic style.

The castle was built at the beginning of the 12th century on Celtic fortifications. It was first mentioned in 1195, when the then lord of the castle granted it as a fief to the Archbishop of Trier. The castle is visible from afar.

The castle ruins are worth seeing, but the town centre is also worth seeing.

Freely accessible. A rustic path leads up from the street. The view is great and you can take a break

It takes about 10-15 minutes to walk from the town to the castle ruins. There are also several paths that lead there. One is even a via ferrata. It is very picturesque and there is a beautiful view from the top.

Not only a beautiful sight from the Moselle valley, but also worth a visit.
