A magnificent 🏰, looming over the vineyards of the town of Alken 🤩. Wonderfully accessible via the Moselsteig trail or the Traumpfade trail 😊.

Thurant Castle with its two towers is unmistakable

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.
