라우벤하임‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 동굴

사라져 버린 1,100미터가 넘는 구간: 힌덴부르크 다리(Hindenburgbrücke)는 한때 라인강에서 두 번째로 큰 다리였습니다. 오늘날에는 그 흔적이 거의 남아 있지 않습니다. 그 이유는 '기억의 다리(Brücke der Erinnerung)' 스캔에서 확인하실 수 있습니다.

뤼데스하임 근처 니더발트(Niederwald) 조경 공원에 있는 로셀(Rossel) 유적은 인공적으로 조성된 성 유적입니다. 요한 프리드리히 폰 오슈타인(Johann Friedrich von Ostein) 백작은 1764년부터 니더발트를 사냥터로 개발하기 시작했으며, 30년 후 그곳에 이 유적과 같은 인공적인 고대 건축물을 세웠습니다. 후기 바로크 정원 문화의 맥락에서 이러한 정교한 구조물들은 오락과 조경을 위해 사용되었습니다. 로셀 성 유적은 거의 수직으로 떨어지는 바위 절벽 위에 서 있습니다. 그곳에서 빙거 로흐(Binger Loch), 마우제투름(Mäuseturm), 에렌펠스(Ehrenfels) 유적의 장관을 감상할 수 있습니다. 이 상상력이 풍부한 건축물은 약간 높은 원형 탑과 직사각형 건물로 구성되어 있습니다. 라인슈타이그(Rheinsteig) 트레일이 유적 바로 옆으로 이어집니다.

The first documented mention of the hilltop castle dates back to 1213, when the Imperial Abbey of Kornelimünster near Aachen appointed Philipp III von Bolanden as "castellanus" and governor. Experts partly doubt or reject the first conquest in 1253. What is certain is the siege, conquest and destruction by King Rudolph of Habsburg in 1282. The castle was banned from being rebuilt. From 1290 onwards, the ruins were owned by the Counts Palatine, who gave them up in favour of the Electorate of Mainz in 1344. A new building was then quickly constructed. A double ring wall enclosed a rectangular residential tower and an inner courtyard of the main castle. A forecourt was located to the north. In 1397, after the Pope had appointed John II of Nassau Archbishop of Mainz, ignoring the election of the Mainz Cathedral Chapter the previous year, Archbishop Gottfried von Leiningen, elected in 1396, barricaded himself in the castle. Only after tough negotiations did he give up the bishop's seat and was instead given the office of provost of Mainz Cathedral. His concession prevented another attack on the castle and possible further destruction. The castle had been left to decay since the 16th century. The remains were blown up in 1689 during the War of the Palatinate Succession. In 1834 Franz Wilhelm von Barfus bought the ruins and converted a tower into his residence. His heirs sold the castle to Baron von Rehfuß in 1877 and he sold it to Consul Chosodowsky in 1889. The castle was given its current appearance by Baron Nikolaus von Kirsch-Puricelli, a wealthy industrialist and owner of the Rheinböllerhütte. From 1899 to 1902, Kirsch-Puricelli had the castle rebuilt into a neo-Gothic residential castle in the Tudor style according to plans by the Regensburg architect Strebel. Additional residential buildings and an observation tower were built on the site of the outer castle. Reichenstein was the last castle in the Upper Middle Rhine Valley to be rebuilt in the spirit of Rhine Romanticism. After the castle was sold by the family in the 1990s, media entrepreneur Lambert Lensing-Wolff, a descendant of the Kirsch-Puricelli family, acquired Reichenstein Castle in 2014 as a weekend residence and also runs a museum and a hotel with a restaurant here.

Beautiful view from the bike path up to the castle

Great view of the castle which is still well preserved.

The castle has its origins in the early 14th century. With its towers and battlements, it really looks like you would imagine a medieval castle to be - a fairytale view directly over the Rhine.

A very impressive castle complex. Reichenstein Castle, also known as Falkenburg, is a castle in the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley. It stands on a ledge on the eastern slope of the Binger Forest above the Rhineland-Palatinate municipality of Trechtingshausen.

from the castle battlements you always have a great view of the Rhine
