Above St Clement`s Chapel, on the banks of the river, rises Reichenstein, one of the oldest castles on the Rhein. In the 13th century it was greatly feared as the hide-out of robber knights. It has twice been destroyed, once by the League of Rhenish Cities, and then again by the great opponent of the robbers, Emperor Rudolf von Hapsburg. Reichenstein Castle was rebuilt around 1900 and now houses a significant private collection of antlers and weapons.
