About Marksburg Castle
Located on a hilltop, the Marksburg Castle dominates the horizon. Its location was carefully chosen to ensure a natural defense system because it was designed primarily for protective purposes. But over the time it has undergone radical transformations and extensions to adapt to the needs that history imposed. This impressive chateau prides in the fact that its heavy fortifications were damaged only once and this was in World War II by American artillery. Walking through its cobblestone interior, visitors will really get a vivid sense of what medieval life was like, as this castle is considered the best-preserved castle on the Rhine.
