Marksburg Castle

8/3
Want to see a real medieval castle? We made it to the Marksburg Castle. This is only castle on the Rhine that has never been destroyed. The castle remains unchanged from medieval times. As you drive up, you can see the castle from quite a distance up on a tree covered hill that rises above of the village below. It looks spectacular.

Suley and I were able to tour the inside. Interesting things we saw were sets of full body armor, the torture chamber, and striking views of the area from the castle.
