The value and significance of the Marksburg lie primarily in its complete preservation as a medieval fortification. For many visitors it is the epitome of a medieval castle. Its exposed location on a rocky cone 90 meters above the town of Braubach contributes to this. The imposing fortress with buildings mainly from the 13th to 15th centuries is staggered with a keep, several buildings, kennels and bastions. The typical interior rooms such as the castle kitchen, knights' hall, bower, chapel, armory, wine cellar, battlements and tower rooms are particularly worth seeing. They provide insights into medieval life.

Built as Stolzenfels Castle by Trier Archbishop Arnold von Isenburg, it was used to collect the Rhine toll until 1412. In 1689 the French destroyed the castle during the War of the Palatinate Succession. After Napoleon's defeat, the complex became the property of the city of Koblenz. In 1823 the city finally donated the ruins to the Prussian Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm. After 1919, Stolzenfels Castle became the property of the Prussian Administration of State Palaces and Gardens. Today it belongs to the state of Rhineland-Palatinate.

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.

The Marksburg is a 12th-century[1] hilltop castle above the Rhineland-Palatinate town of Braubach am Rhein, from which it got its original name Burg Brubach. It stands on a slate cone at a height of 160 meters and is the only "never destroyed medieval hilltop castle on the Middle Rhine". The plastered quarry stone building was created for the protection and administration of Braubach and initially also served as a customs castle. The castle is a protected cultural monument according to the Monument Protection Act (DSchG) and is entered in the Rhineland-Palatinate list of monuments.[2] Furthermore, it is a protected cultural asset under the Hague Convention and is marked with the blue and white protection symbol. It has also been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley since 2002. (Q: wikipedia)

The ruins of the Lower Castle are worth a visit. From up here, you have a magnificent view of the Moselle Valley. However, you should be in good shape, as there is quite a bit of uphill walking. The path continues via a Stations of the Cross to the Upper Castle and St. Matthias Chapel.
