Beautiful place, beautiful village

Kauzenburg Castle was built around 1200 for the Counts of Sponheim. The small town of Bad Kreuznach, with its ring of walls, grew up around the castle. Over the centuries, the castle expanded into a veritable fortress with a palace. It reached its greatest extent around 1650. Powerful outworks were built around the palace. The great era of Kauzenburg came to an abrupt end when French troops, during the War of Conquest, blew it up in 1689 and burned it to the ground, leaving only the cellar standing. It wasn't until the 19th century that a kind of "manor house"—a grand bourgeois country estate—was built on the site of the ruins. This had to make way in the early 1970s when the architect Gottfried Böhm combined the remaining ruins with a new architectural design reminiscent of castle battlements—a style also used elsewhere. For a long time, the surviving vaulted cellar served as the venue for popular medieval banquets. The restaurant closed a few years ago; today, a catering service leases the premises and offers it for events. Anyone walking around the grounds and the castle can still get a sense of its former grandeur.

This castle is located above Bad Kreuznach. Restaurant with vaulted cellar available

Beautifully located hotel above the city, which was architecturally developed from the ruins of the castle.

The small town of Stromberg is also known as the gateway to the Nahe, Rhine, and Hunsrück rivers, as well as the town of the German Michel. Stromberg offers plenty of variety: a golf course, the Stromberg Flowtrail, hiking and biking trails, and castles await visitors and locals alike.

The Kauzenburg is the ruin of a hilltop castle in Bad Kreuznach in the district of Bad Kreuznach in Rhineland-Palatinate. The Kauzenburg was the residence of the front county of Sponheim. The castle was first mentioned in a document in 1206, in which King Philip of Swabia forbade the construction of a castle. From 1206 to 1230 the first castle was built by Count Gottfried III. († 1218) and Johann I of Sponheim († 1266). In 1417 the castle was divided between the Counts of Sponheim and the Elector and Count Palatine Ludwig III. 1437 was followed by another division under the Heidelberg Count Palatine Ludwig IV, Friedrich III. von Veldenz and the Margrave of Baden. In 1444 Stefan von Pfalz-Simmern-Zweibrücken followed as heir to the Veldenz share. In the Palatinate War between 1450 and 1470, the Margrave lost his share. Elector Philip expanded the castle. In 1503 Baden became a co-owner again. Source: Wikipedia In 1620 the Spanish Marquis Spinola conquered Kreuznach and the castle, which he fortified until 1632. In 1632, during the Thirty Years' War, the Swedish king conquered the castle. In 1635 the imperial troops took over the town and castle. In 1639, the French under General Duc Henri II d'Orléans-Longueville (1595-1663) recaptured the castle and in 1641 the Imperials under Gil de Haes took over the fortress. After the Peace of Westphalia, the castle fell to Baden and the Palatinate. For the first time, the castle was referred to as "Veste Kauzenburg". The French under General Louis-François de Boufflers (1644-1711) conquered the castle in 1688, blew it up and burned down the building.

It's worth a visit here, an association is trying to maintain it and you can see that. Wonderful castle that I like very much

On April 4, 1792, French revolutionary troops planted a liberty linden tree on Stromburg, which was destroyed on March 3, 1689. There was heavy fighting near Stromberg against the Prussians approaching in the north, in which the French General Custine deployed around 12,000 men. The new laws of the French revolutionary period were also introduced in the Middle East in 1796. Accordingly, all sovereigns were deprived of their rule and all Electoral Palatinates were dissolved, thus ending the small states of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation. Stromberg became the seat of a canton in Rhin-et-Moselle with 27 towns and 7,943 inhabitants. A final contract was concluded regarding the fate of the left bank of the Rhine. According to the Treaty of Lunéville of 1801, the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation had to cede this area completely to France. From 1805 onwards, the Nahe region was again only used for troops to pass through. Sometimes residents from here were also sent to the front as French citizens. The Mayor of Stromberg sent 97 men between 1800 and 1814. The Prussian General Yorck set off from Wartenburg to Stromberg on New Year's Eve at 11 a.m., where he set up his quarters until January 4, 1814. General Blücher also stopped in Stromberg in 1814 during the wars of liberation. Under the Prussians until the end of the First World War According to the Congress of Vienna, the Near region had now been handed over to the Prussians, who, however, were more interested in ruling over Poland or Saxony. The population was also neither consulted nor taken into account, so that they behaved negatively towards the Prussians and considered everything to be a kind of interim government. The first half of the 19th century was not exactly rosy and brought with it numerous years of hardship.
