The fortress was built to secure the important strategic point at which the Moselle and Rhine intersected, and was occupied by France during the German-French War and the French Revolution, and the whole fortress was hexagonal and built on a cliff, The walls are also surrounded by cannon holes and small mouths for firing, which facilitate the attack of the enemy, and the whole geographical position is excellent, and the side proves the importance of the Ellenbrightstein Fortress (oh yo, the name is too hard to remember). Round-trip cable car + fortress tickets are 11.8 euros, if you are interested in military and European history, it is still worth visiting here!
