アウ・アム・ラインの洞窟・トップ5

「アフェルデルレ」という名前の建物については、今日ではあまり多くはわかっていません。これは中高ドイツ語の「アファルター」（リンゴの木）という言葉に由来しています。それは「失われた城」、「ロストプレイス」であり、見るべきものはあまり残っておらず、確かなことはあまり言えません。かつてこの城は「シュトライトシュタイン」または「シュロス・シュトライツベルク」（1574年にそのように言及）とも呼ばれていたと言われています。おそらく10世紀にヴァイセンブルク修道院によって、ライン川の渡河点であるプフォルツ（マクシミリアンザウ）– クニーリンゲンを守り、ノルマン人やハンガリー人の襲撃から身を守るために建てられたのでしょう。城は元々木と土で造られていましたが、石造になったのは11世紀か12世紀と言われています。それは、強力な環状壁と防御用の堀に架けられた跳ね橋を持つ、モット（丘）型の城でした。このような城はフランスで知られており、「モット」（「土塊」、「山」）と呼ばれています。初期の中世の城のタイプで、主に木造で建てられ、その主な特徴は、通常は塔のような建物がある人工的な土の丘です。

Just a few steps from the Karlsruhe Gate towards the city on Ludwigsring is the inconspicuous entrance to the casemates of Bastion 27 - Ludwigsfeste. Because of the low door, you have to enter with your head bowed and you reach the "Inner Karlsruher Thorwache". The historic bastion is located under a residential building and was given by the owner to the Rastatt Historical Society for public relations work. Walking through the casemates of Bastion 27 is an impressive experience. After the revolutionaries laid down their arms on July 23, 1849 and the fortress was handed over to the Prussian troops, several hundred insurgents were imprisoned in the lower rooms under inhumane conditions. https://histvereinrastatt.blogspot.com/2019/09/bastion-27.html

The castle park is the central green area in Rastatt. Behind the castle, Margrave Ludwig Wilhelm of Baden-Baden planned a pleasure garden, as was known from France. Today the park combines baroque with modern elements. Fountains, flower gardens and colorful and shady arcades are still reminiscent of Rastatt's baroque period. The park is framed by chestnut trees, some of which are centuries old.

The impressive Rastatt Residential Palace is worth a stop, and not just because of the beautiful park. You can also visit the castle itself, the castle church and the military history museum or stop off at the park restaurant.

The access through the "Allee" is brilliant👍 Afterwards 🫢!?

I've driven past it umpteen times, there's always something going on, visitors from all over the world and such 😁. It's a very impressive building, just a perfect photo motif for cyclists ☺️👍

The first draft of the palace garden was created around 1705. It has been redesigned several times over the centuries. The current garden was designed by Gunnar Martinsson in the 1980s and its arcades are reminiscent of the Baroque period. Otherwise symmetrically structured.
