On a hill close to where I live is something that looks like an old castle ruin. However, it is just a stage set/coulisse, built by chemist and industry leader Ernst Harbeck junior, around the year 1900. He wanted the ruin to resemble a Rhenborg so that his German-born wife, who suffered from severe homesickness, could sit up there and look out over the "Rhine Valley".
The old church was most likely built during the 13th century.

I love old castles! They are beautifully designed!
That's classic, I never would have guessed its story.
The castle make be fake but it looks real! Lovely church!
Så läckert - och intressant!
Håller faktiskt med Carolina och kul med en historia bakom byggnaden också. Är impad över din kunskap:-)
Here in the UK those 'fake' buildings are called a folly, meaning something silly but picturesque to have in your garden. Usually a ruined building.
the second one looks spooky... but love your photo.
