In our total of 15 years of being stationed overseas in Germany and the countless times we have been to Bernkastel-Kues we finally made it up to the castle!
From the top of the remaining tower of 7 originals there is a fantastic view!

Burg Landshut
We hope someday, Bernkastel-Kues will resume
their annual wine festival and fireworks show.
It is an amazing spectacle with a boat on the Mosel river
shooting cannons at the castle and vice versa.
About 30 minutes away we travel to:
Schloss Veldenz
Once the largest castles of the middle Mosel region.
The banquet hall was decked out and ready for a party (minus the food)
Yes, it is a long way up there!
We have taken to driving up as far as we are allowed.
Even then we find out that we could have driven right up to the gates.
This drive gave us a long, uphill, dirt road. We parked just 100 steps from the entrance.

Travel works up an appetite!
