Interactive map - Tourism and Rhine castles

Interactive map of the castles of the Upper Rhine, based on data on accessibility, itinerary, tourist interest, ticketing and catering facilities. This project is co-financed by the EU as part of the Interreg VI project "Rhine castles - Burgen am Oberrhein".



At the crossroads of the German, Swiss and French borders lies one of the highest densities of castles in Europe, with more than 300 dominating the Rhine valley massifs. Witnesses of the Middle Ages, marked by Germanic influence, these castles, transformed or now in ruins, have resonated since the 19th century with legends and myths inherited from Romanticism.
