Rhine Heritage Trail

The Rhine Heritage Trail showcases the historical evolution of the Middle Rhine Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage region. This collection features diverse landmarks, including the 13th-century Marksburg, the only hilltop castle on the Rhine never destroyed, and the unique island-bound Pfalzgrafenstein toll castle. It also encompasses Roman history through the Upper Germanic-Rhaetian Limes and the well-preserved fortifications of Kastell Boppard. Notable political sites include the Königsstuhl, a reconstructed stone throne where medieval kings were elected, and memorials dedicated to the Prussian statesman Baron vom Stein.
