Meersburg Castle

Let's have **the cultural tour **first, shall we? Meersburg is famous for its castles and its wine, and trust me they are both worth experiencing. **Burg Meersburg, **aka **Meersburg Castle, **is an **ancient castle **which dates way back to the 7th Century. The rooms of the castle are fully furnished with that period's style. In it, you can also admire a quarter dedicated and made for the famous German poet; Annette von Droste-Hülshoff! Here is a little part from one of her poems, "Moonrise" ;

" O moon! To me you are a belated friend,

Who unites his youth to a poor lost soul

Clasping about him his dying memories

Of life's tender reflections.

No sun are you that charms and flashes,

Lives in rivers of fire and ends in blood-

You are what the poem is to the ailing singer-

A different, but oh, so soft a light! "

Ok, back to the castle. After visiting this gorgeous castle, you can rest in its cafe and sip your drink with a mesmerising view of **the Alps **across the lake.

Wine, wine and more wine!
