other side of the Rhine and bit more north … it used to be my playground as a kid inside was a beer garden even then but we used to play in the woods around there and later I had my first looong walks with my first boyfriend there …
They took down a lot of trees around it last year (they had become unsafe because of age), at the back it looks quite bare – but it means that one can see the actual ruin much better now.

A most picturesque ruin, reminds me of some I saw in the woods of Northern Alsace

Nothing like a good ruin and if this one has good memories, so much the better!

Definitely a do-er up-er challenge, Elke 🙂 🙂 Probably more beautiful as a ruin.
