Castles to the right of me, castles to the left of me..back in the middle the Rhine again.

 

This morning for two hours we cruise along the Rhine river to look at castles.  I have a list of the castles and their names but Im choosing to just show you the castles we saw without trying to identify them all. After two hours of loooking at them, believe me one starts to look like the next one and a name won’t help you.


Not a castle, a toll booth




Vineyards grace all the steep hills



Believe it or not, many of the castles have been restored and are privately own. Hotels abound!




Smallest town in Germany..the pub is hooked onto the church and the vicar owns the pub!



A statue of Lorelei

A rock outcropping names Lorelei after the story of the maiden who lured sailers and men to their death



Try pronouncing the name of this town!

Two castles of brothers who fell out over women and eventually built a wall between them. 
Not a castle…surprise!
Hope you enjoyed this castle tour!
