Schloss Stolzenfels is a castle in the Middle Rhine Valley in Koblenz. It stands on the left side of the Rhine opposite the mouth of the Lahn above Stolzenfels. We stayed in a hotel on the other side of the Rhine in Lahnstein and from the hotel room we had a great view of the castle. I got out of bed at 5am to capture this picturesque castle. The weather conditions were perfect, the sun came through and there was fog around the castle which made it even more like a fairy tale.
