Klopp Castle
Bingen am Rhein, Germany, Germany
Klopp Castle, or Burg Klopp, is a castle‑like building standing on a hill above the town of Bingen am Rhein in the Upper Middle Rhine Valley of Rhineland‑Palatinate, Germany.
It was originally built in the middle of the 13th century by the Archbishop of Mainz, Siegfried III, to control the mouth of the River Nahe, secure toll rights, and protect the archbishop’s interests from local uprisings.
The medieval fortress was repeatedly damaged and destroyed in later wars, including the Thirty Years’ War and the War of the Palatine Succession, and its ruins were finally demolished so the site could not be used against Mainz.
In the 19th century the complex was rebuilt in Neo‑Gothic style, with a prominent crenelated keep and reworked gatehouse, and ever since it has housed the town administration of Bingen while also serving as a distinctive landmark and occasional venue for events and a restaurant.
