Kind Koblenz-1 Stolzenfels Castle is probably the best known of the Rhine castles rebuilt by the Prussian royal family during the Romantic age. Crown prince, later King Frederick William IV was given the ruin of the castle, which had been begun in the 13th century, as a present. He had it rebuilt by 1842 as a summer residence under the direction of the Berlin architects Karl Friedrich Schinkel and Friedrich August Stüler.
Kick-ass KD Kruise-29 Just a few kilometres from the centre of Koblenz rises the Stolzenfels Castle in the district of the same name, high above the left bank of the Rhine. Built in the 19th century from the ruins of a 13th century fort, the castle with its park and gardens is culturally, historically and artistically one of the most important achievements of Prussian Rhine Romanticism. The Stolzenfels fort, built by Trier Archbishop Arnold von Isenburg, was used for levying the Rhine toll until 1412. The French destroyed the fort in 1689 during the Palatinate War of Succession. The site became the possession of the city of Koblenz after Napoleon’s defeat. The city then gave the ruins to the Prussian Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm in 1823. He then commissioned well-known architect, Karl Friedrich Schinkel, with the reconstruction which began in 1836 to Schinkel’s plans. The official opening was celebrated in 1842 with a grand costume ball. From this point on, the Stolzenfels Castle was open to the public and has always been regarded as the epitome of Rhine Romanticism. Today the beautiful, seemingly enchanted castle where you can experience the impressive domestic culture of the 19th century can be reached on foot via a serpentine path from the Stolzenfels city district.

Ein weiterer Grund zum Bau mag auch gewesen sein, dass das Erzbistum Mainz auf der gegenüberliegendn Rheinseite an der Lahnmündung wenige Jahre zuvor die Burg Lahneck hatte erbauen lassen. Beide Burgen erhielten im 14. Jh. das Recht auf Erhebung von Rheinzöllen. • 1689 wird die Burg im Pfälzischen Erbfolgekrieg zerstört. Sie blieb zunächst Ruine und Steinbruch. • 1823 schenkt die Stadt Koblenz die Burgruine dem späteren Preußenkönig Friedrich Wilhelm IV. • 1836-1842 wird sie nach Plänen Johann Claudius von Lassaulx, Karl Friedrich Schinkel und Friedrich Ludwig Persius im Stil der rheinischen Spätromantik wieder aufgebaut als Wohnsitz für König Friedrich Wilhelm IV..
