Eltz Castle
Eltz Castle is a spectacular castle that sits on a clifftop above the Moselle River, and has been standing on that spot, inhabited by the same family since the 12th century. Although the castle is open to visitors for part of the year, the family is in residence the other half of the year so make your visit during the summer season.
If you’re lucky, you may catch a glimpse of the resident ghost, Agnes, who died fighting to defend the castle. The breastplate and axe that you see in the Countess’ bedroom once belonged to her.
