The Castle Frankenstein sits atop a hill in Germany not far from the Rhine river. The castle was built before 1250 by Lord Conrad II Reiz of Breuberg, who later called himself Frankenstein. Various branches of his family and their allies lived in the castle for roughly 400 years. In the seventeenth century, the castle acted as barracks for retired soldiers. The castle fell to ruins in the 18th century and in the 1850’s it was partly restored.
It is widely believed that Castle Frankenstein served as inspiration for Mary Shelley’s famous novel.
