CASTLE SPONECK
An arial photo of the CASTLE SPONECK on the Rhine which here forms the border between Germany and France. The damage to the 'workshop' buildings on the left of the picture was caused by an American bomb dropped when the Americans were crossing into Germany at the end of the Second World War. Fortunately the 'Manor House' was not hit neither the reconstructed 'Tower' that housed the art studio. Top of Picture: Grave of Prof. Buehler who purchased the 'Burg' in 1913 and whose family still own it. Below grave, is original castle stones from the first Roman castle built in the fourth century!
