Does Chlodwig’s Ghost Still Dwell Here?

Not many ghost towns in densely populated central Europe but lots of old ruined castles for ghosts to haunt. This particular one is Burg Königstein to the west of Frankfurt am Main.



I’m not sure if I prefer the monochrome treatment (this particular shade is called bandicoot in photoscape, probably better described as a kind of olive grey, which I like for old buildings and ruins) to the colour version. I like the contrast of the ancient stones to the green of the plants and the blue of the skies.
