A small historical monument "Château de Niederstinzel" left to its sad fate, surrounded by a river and an organic farm. Very nice view in the distance, parcontre path inaccessible for the disabled, strollers or others. The only way to get there is on foot and a few jumps to pass because there are trenches around. Otherwise I advise you not to approach it because of the risk of falling rocks. Considering his condition. A question bothers me, where are the debris that fell??? No trace...

It's not worth going especially for it. Passing by, you can look in, grabbing a couple of sandwiches. Nature and good view guaranteed!

I have known this castle for a very long time and I find it a pity that no association takes care of this historic work. And for others there are thousands of euros (notre dames) thank you.

Place in the countryside, abandoned, too bad because a few years ago people participated in the restoration ....

Could not get to castle due to an electric fence. Couldn't see a way to visit a bit disappointing.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
