​👑 Rheingrafenstein Castle Ruins – The Rock Boss on the Cycle Path ​Tip: Stop here! The Rheingrafenstein ruins sit dramatically perched on a 136-meter-high porphyry cliff above the Nahe River – one of the most impressive sights of the entire tour. The castle was the ancestral seat of the famous Wildgraves and Rhinegraves (until it was blown up in 1689). ​The view from the cycle path is phenomenal! If you really want to go up (and have enough energy), you can take the small hand-pulled ferry across and take the steep hiking trail to the ruins. It's worth it for the view over the Nahe Valley, but honestly: My legs were already tired enough from cycling. The panoramic view from below is worth its weight in gold! A must-have for your photo collection!

Rheingrafenstein Castle sits enthroned on a steep porphyry cliff (245 meters high) directly above the Nahe River near Bad Münster am Stein-Ebernburg. Legend has it that the devil himself built the castle—a reference to its dramatic location and mystical aura. In fact, it likely dates back to the 11th century and was the ancestral seat of the Lords of Stein, later the Wildgraves and Rhinegraves. In 1689, it was blown up by French troops under Louis XIV, and since then it has been a ruin—but an extremely impressive one.

A really beautiful and impressive facility with informative explanatory panels

Great castle ruins and definitely worth seeing. Part of the new building style is added to the old one. Conferences and events take place here. There is also a café and you have a great view from up here.

The first hilltop castle and a settlement may have originally existed in another location, namely in the area around the Protestant Old Johanneskirche (so-called fortified church) in Ebernburg. The first documented mention of the name “Ebernburc” dates back to 1206, although, according to Böcher, it is not clear whether the mention refers to the castle or the town. However, Böcher believes it is unlikely that the place is older than the castle. In 1338 - that is certain - Raugraf Ruprecht and Count Johann von Sponheim-Kreuznach built the castle.

Sorry, but I couldn't see the Ebernburg for the trees from here.

This exciting castle ruin is begging to be explored. A destination for numerous visitors.

Beautiful rock with the Rheingrafenstein castle ruins. It is said that the devil is said to have built the castle. In any case, the castle was blown up by the French troops under Louis XIV.
