Laach Castle, also known as the Palatine Castle, is a Salian castle on the Laach Lake opposite the Maria Laach Abbey in the Ahrweiler district. It was located on a rocky spur above the eastern shore of the lake and was temporarily the seat of the Rhenish Counts Palatine. Count Palatine Heinrich von Laach from the House of Luxembourg-Gleiberg (†1095) founded the Laach Monastery in 1093. Laach Castle was demolished around 20 years after the monastery was founded by the Count Palatine's stepson and adopted son, Siegfried von Ballenstedt. The loss of the castle was not a great loss for Siegfried, as he had another castle in the area, Rheineck Castle. Today, only a few traces and the field names "Laacher Burg" and "Alte Burg" indicate its existence. The castle was protected from the land side by two section moats, behind which there were stone towers. The remaining buildings were probably made of wood.

Simply beautiful here at the lake

Always a highlight. A hike around Lake Laacher See is worthwhile at any time of the year.

Very nice here at the lake.

Quarry with different lava rocks.

Such signposts made of stone can be found again and again around the lake.

Due to the fallen big tree, the view has a special touch.
