Eltz Castle
Tucked away in a secluded forest valley above the Moselle River, Eltz Castle is one of Germany’s most picturesque medieval fortresses. Never destroyed or taken by force in over eight centuries, the castle has been owned by thirty-three generations of the same noble family. Alongside its architectural beauty, Eltz Castle harbors ghost stories, most notably the legend of Countess Agnes von Eltz, who perished defending her home from an unwanted suitor.
