Drachenburg Castle

A unique castle with a wonderful panorama over the Rhine

Drachenburg Castle is situated below the Drachenfels. It was built from 1882 to 1884 and is now regarded as one of the most significant castle buildings of the late 19th century in Germany. After many years of restoration, the Castle, its grounds and the lower castle glisten in their original splendour. The living and reception rooms invite visitors to familiarise themselves with and experience the life and times of the period when it was built with all its sophisticated splendour. The Castle is surrounded by extensive grounds with ancient trees and majestic rhododendrons that entice visitors to take a leisurely stroll with unforgettable views over the Rhine.
