The fortress castle Pfalzgrafenstein, the "Pfalz im Rhein", is a stronghold in the middle of the Rhine, across from the little town of Kaub. It has a six-cornered ring wall and covered battlements and is protected by a falling barred gate. It was built in 1326-1327 by King Ludwig von Bayern for the sole purpose of collecting the tolls of the Rhine shipping. The strongly fortified fortress of Gutenfels sits on a mountain spur in the background. June 27/2013. Note: There is paint bleed around the lower window areas on the exterior white walls.
