Reichsburg Cochem, Gothic Revival castle in Cochem, Germany.

The Reichsburg Cochem stands 136 meters above the Moselle River, featuring decorated rooms, a grand hall with woodwork, and stained glass windows.

Built in the 11th century, the castle suffered destruction during the War of Augsburg in 1689 and underwent reconstruction between 1868 and 1877.

The castle maintains a collection of medieval furnishings in the Knights' Hall, Renaissance Dining Room, and Trophy Room, displaying German nobility traditions.

Guided tours in multiple languages take visitors through the castle's rooms, including the chapel, dining hall, and cellar halls throughout the day.

A one-kilometer-long hidden passage connects the castle to the Capuchin Monastery, running beneath the town of Cochem.
