Légende
The Palace of Stolzenfels, on the Rhine, 1845. 'Stolzenfels [near Koblenz in Germany] is much resorted to, on account of the fine view which it commands. It is placed on a jutting rock, looking over the Rhine and the little village of Kapellen, and nearly opposite the confluence of the Lahn. Its picturesque outline and commanding position seem to justify its name of the Proud Rock, and render it one of the most imposing feudal ruins on the Rhine...It was purchased fori the present King of Prussia some years ago, for a trifling sum, and he has restored it...It is beautifully situated, on a thick-wooded height, which slopes beneath to the river...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII.
