Schloss Friedrichstein, Medieval château in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.
The castle features high defensive towers and thick stone walls positioned strategically above valleys formed by the Rhine and Moselle rivers.
Construction of the castle began in the late 11th century, with major building phases occurring between 1095 and 1105 under Count Saffenburg's direction.
The castle stands as part of a collection of over 80 historical fortifications in Rhineland-Palatinate, each representing different architectural periods.
Visitors can access the castle grounds through walking paths and bicycle routes that connect to other historical landmarks in the surrounding region.
The castle's position in the Rhenish Massif provides views of five major river valleys: the Rhine, Moselle, Ahr, Lahn, and Nahe.
