Review:
Built around the year 1000 by Count Ezzo, Reichsburg Cochem has a rich history involving palatinate counts, a former Queen of Poland, the Staufer Dynasty, and destruction by French troops. The castle was rebuilt in 1868 in the neo-Gothic architectural style by a Berlin business man, Mr. Louis Ravene, to be used as a summer house. Today, visitors can go on guided tours through the castle’s many rooms and courtyards and see antiquities that were collected by the Ravene family over the years. A special tour is available to pique the interest of younger visitors; the tour goes through the Knights’ Hall and Weapons Room, the Romanesque Room, and the dining hall, among other places.
