  • SEVEN CASTLE TOUR Mankind Obviously
    SEVEN CASTLE TOUR Mankind obviously needs superlatives. We choose one of the meaningful: 7 castles on a single day hike would be difficult to beat. However, if only the record sake laces your boots, you miss that the beauty of this tour is not dependent on the magic seven. Better is to enjoy the Palatine-Alsatian scene change, the quite hefty climbs and of course every one of all the 12 and 13 Century built castles in their distinctiveness. In the center of Schönau you will find a table for orientation and the signs to Wegelnburg [Red-Yellow bar until Maidenbrunnen (Maiden fountain). The long rise runs always on the south side of Sindelsberg in an easterly direction to the crossing at the Kaiser Wilhelm shelter. A narrow trail continues up to the Wegelnburg (572 m), the highest castle in the Palatinate. From here we see not only up to the northern Palatinate Forest and the Black Forest, but also to our next destinations Hohenbourg and Löwenstein, which are almost the at same height and are therefore in sight continuously and with little descends and ascends. Just in a yoke between Wegelnburg and Hohenbourg near the Maiden Well we cross the border to France, where we will hike during the next hours. The ruin Hohenburg (High Castle 553 m) offers a very nice observation deck with panoramic views over the Rhine valley and the northern Vosges and impresses with well-preserved details of castle ruins. a few minutes further south are the ruins of Löwenstein, which was destroyed in 1386, so that we find only a few remnants.

  • Ottheinrich's View of Heidelberg
    Please provide footnote text CHAPTER 5 Ottheinrich’s View of Heidelberg Figure 70 Unknown artist, View of Heidelberg. From Sebastian Münster, Cosmographia (Basel: Heinrich Petri, 1550). Woodcut, 25.3 × 70.2 cm. The view of Heidelberg (fig. 70) is a large, four-page foldout panorama of the city and Heidelberg Castle, on the banks of the river Neckar, a tributary of the Rhine. The view was not submitted by Heidelberg’s ruler, the Wittelsbach prince-elector Friedrich II of the Palatinate but by his nephew, Count Palatine of the Rhine Ottheinrich of Palatinate-Neuburg (1502–1559). Prince-elector of the Palatinate was the most prestigious office in the lineage of the counts palatine of the Rhine, held by the Wittelsbach family. Due to the division of territories among different branches of the family, by the sixteenth century younger branches held the less important office of count palatine in Simmern, Zweibrücken, Veldenz, and Neuburg. The curious discrepancy between pa- tronage and rulership in the view of Heidelberg makes this view the perfect case study for testing the validity of the ancestral mode as a category of city views. At the time of Ottheinrich’s submission, between 1547 and 1550, the re- bellious and bankrupt count lived in exile from his domains in Neuburg and could not make any territorial claims to Heidelberg. Nor did he attempt to do so in the intricate program of texts, genealogical trees, and illustrations that he submitted to the Cosmographia. Instead, Ottheinrich’s program served to advance and publicize his long-standing ancestral claim to the electorship.
