Electoral Castle: Learn more about it
Welcome to Boppard, a historic town at the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley. One of our most prominent landmarks is the Electoral Castle, a fortress that stands proudly above the banks of the Rhine.
A Glimpse into the Past
Built in the 14th century under the rule of Elector Balduin of Trier, the castle served as a residence for the powerful Archbishop and Elector of Trier. This impressive fortress is a living example of medieval military architecture on the Rhine, with its imposing keep and massive walls.
From Elector's Palace to Museum
As the years progressed, the castle underwent a fascinating evolution: from an elector's residence to a prison, later to a school, and even a hospital. Today, after meticulous restoration, it houses the City Museum of Boppard. Visitors can delve deep into Boppard's rich history while simultaneously enjoying the breathtaking view of the Rhine.
