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.

The Marksburg was built in the 13th to 14th century under Gerhard II von Epstein in the late romantic style. It is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley.

The Marksburg stands on a slate cone at a height of 160 meters and is the only medieval hilltop castle on the Middle Rhine that has never been destroyed.

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)

Very impressive ruin, which is also completely freely accessible. The castle is a bit off the road, but with sturdy shoes it is easy to reach via various paths. Highly Recommended!

Very wonderful up there, in the middle of the forest. Been there before.

Very nice ruin with good information on a board in front of the entrance. Inside the castle there are 3 benches where you can have a picnic. The ideal place to stop for a break on the "Augst" Waller Tour.

In great condition
