Why Eltz Castle matters
Burg Eltz is a classic medieval castle, tucked into a forested valley and surrounded by a stream. It was never destroyed and has stayed in the same family for centuries. The walk from the car park through the woods is half the fun, and the first view of the towers is spectacular.
