Description
Cochem Imperial castle. Germany.
Reichsburg Cochem
The Reichsburg Cochem had its first documentary mention
in 1130. In 1151, it was occupied by King Konrad III,
who declared it an Imperial castle. In 1688, the castle
was overrun by French King Louis XIV's troops in the
course of the Nine Years' War (known in Germany as the
Pfälzischer Erbfolgekrieg, or War of the Palatine
Succession), and the following year, they destroyed it.
The castle complex long lay in ruins before in 1868 it
was bought by the Berlin businessman Louis Fréderic
Jacques Ravené for 300 Goldmark and then reconstructed
in the Gothic Revival style. Since 1978 it has been
owned by the town of Cochem.
