I’m guessing I was very lucky to have a mainly sunny morning as we cruised down the Rhine Gorge, past all the famous castles.Only the very top Castle is in original condition. All the rest have been destroyed at some point by invading armies and renovated in the romantic period of the the nineteenth centaury.
