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.

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

A visit to this castle is worthwhile

Magnificent views + the beautiful tower ruins from the 13th century

Everything has already been written about the castle. Unfortunately it is privately owned and cannot be visited. But a very nice view below the ruins.

What a great view!

The views of the castle are just awesome. The castle itself is privately owned

The ruins of Nollig stand high above the city on the hill of the same name. This defense tower was built around 1300 as part of the city fortifications to secure the city down the Rhine. Investigations have shown that the tower was first erected as a three-storey half-timbered building, the foundation of which sat directly on the slate rock. To the north, the half-timbered building carried a battlement also made of wooden beams. Later, the tower was encased in a massive rubble stone wall and expanded with two rounded towers on either side of the wooden parapet walkway. In the western tower is the spiral staircase leading to the tower. The city wall was originally supposed to reach up to the defense tower, but this was never implemented due to the smooth slate floor. However, the original size of the city wall can still be seen at the intended connection point at the tower: it was approx. 6 m wide and approx. 1.30 m thick. Today the tower is privately owned and cannot be visited. An exception was Heritage Day 2007, when the public was allowed access to the tower. Many guests and locals took the rare opportunity to hike up the Nollig to take a look at the old fortified tower. The Nollig ruins can only be reached on foot via the Rheinsteig or the Rheinburgenweg. There is no access by car. https://www.lorch-rhein.de/staticsite/staticsite.php?menuid=57&topmenu=41
