Schloss Brohleck, Medieval castle in Brohl-Lützing, Germany.

The L-shaped stone castle sits above the Rhine River, featuring a half-timbered central building and multiple wings dating from different construction periods.

First documented in 1325 as fortalitium Brule, the castle belonged to Archbishop Balduin of Trier before passing through various noble families including the Metternich dynasty.

The castle served as a Reich Labor Service training school for female leaders until 1945, marking a significant period in German educational history.

The privately owned castle requires advance arrangements for visits, with access restricted to specific events and authorized occasions throughout the year.

During April 1942, the castle temporarily housed 100 Jewish citizens from Ahrweiler district before their deportation to concentration camps.
