Stop At: Wiesenhüttenplatz, Wiesenhüttenpl., 60329 Frankfurt am Main, Germany

Leave Frankfurt by van or coach to Castle Eltz

Duration: 1 minute

Stop At: Eltz Castle, Burg Eltz 1, 56294 Wierschem, Rhineland-Palatinate Germany

Leave central Frankfurt and travel by coach to the hills of Moselle River, just north of Koblenz. Your destination is Eltz Castle, a glorious medieval fortress nestled deep in the woodland atop a 230-foot (70-meter) cliff. Rising out of the forest like a fairytale palace, the castle towers over the Elzbach Valley below, and its views are said to be some of the most spectacular in Germany.

After traveling for roughly 1.5 hours, hop off your coach and head inside the castle, seeing its key sites on a walking tour. Having been left intact for some 700 years, Eltz Castle remains furnished pretty much as it always had been, so its interior is a delight to see. Admire the living and sleeping rooms, and then walk through the lavish armory room, where nearly 500 pieces of jewelry and ceremonial weapons are displayed.

Wander through the hunting room, adorned with bear rugs, and hear tales of the servants who once worked in the castle while exploring the kitchens. Learn about the Eltz family who ordered the castle to be built in the 12th century, and hear how the different branches of the family built their own towers within the castle over the following 400 years.

Return to your coach and travel back toward Frankfurt, crossing the Rhine River. Stop at a riverside restaurant and sit down to enjoy a dinner featuring local delicacies and wine (drinks at own expense). Savor the meal while watching the sun go down over the Rhine, and then head back to your coach for the return trip to Frankfurt.
