Burg Eltz 🇩🇪

Eltz Castle is a medieval castle nestled in the hills above the Moselle between Koblenz and Trier, Germany. It is still owned by a branch of House of Eltz who have lived there since the 12th century. Eltz Castle along with Bürresheim Castle and Lissingen Castle are the only castles in the Eifel region which have never been destroyed.

The story

On my way back from Koblenz, I stopped early Sunday morning at Burg Eltz, one of Germany’s most beautiful castles.
