GERMANY: Drachenfels Railway, Königswinter

The Drachenfels Railway (German: Drachenfelsbahn) is a rack railway line in the North Rhine-Westphalia region of Germany. The line runs from the city of Königswinter to the summit of the Drachenfels mountain at an altitude of 289 m (948 ft). Besides the two terminal stations, an intermediate station serves the Schloss Drachenburg. The line is 1.5 km (0.93 mi) long and is single track. The Drachenfels Railway is one of only four rack railways still operational in Germany.

The Drachenfels (Dragon's Rock) is a hill of 321 metres (1,053 ft) in the Siebengebirge uplands between Königswinter and Bad Honnef. The hill was formed by rising magma that could not break through to the surface, and then cooled and became solid underneath. It is the subject of much tourism and romanticism. It overlooks the river Rhine.

The ruined castle Burg Drachenfels, on the summit of the hill, was built between 1138 and 1167 by Archbishop Arnold I of Cologne and bears the same name. It was originally intended for the protection of the Cologne region from any assault from the south.

Castle Drachenburg, Königswinter, North Rhine-Westphalia, ???????? Germany, Walking Tour 2022

Schloss Drachenburg or Drachenburg Castle is a private villa styled as a palace and constructed in the late 19th century. It was completed in only two years (1882–84) on the Drachenfels hill in Königswinter, a German town on the east bank of the Rhine, south of the city of Bonn. Baron Stephan von Sarter [de] (1833–1902), a broker and banker, planned to live there, but never did.

The villa is owned by the State Foundation of North Rhine-Westphalia. It is served by an intermediate station on the Drachenfels Railway.
Stephan Sarter was born in Bonn and, after leaving school, was apprenticed to the Leopold Seligman bank in Köln. He transferred to the Salomon Openheim bank, ending up as a market analyst in their Paris branch. Trading on his own account he amassed a fortune and applied for a patent of nobility in 1881. He continued to live in Paris for the rest of his life, but commissioned the schloss as a fitting background for a German baron.

The initial plans for the building were drawn up by the Dortmund architects, Bernhard Tüshaus and Leo von Abbema with construction commencing in 1882. Sarter appears to have had a falling out with the original architects and brought in the Paris-based architect, Wilhelm Hoffman, to complete the work.

Sarter died a bachelor in 1902 and his estate, including the schloss, was divided amongst a number of his relatives. One of his nephews, Jacob Hubert Biesenbach, a Bonn lawyer, realised the potential of the building as a tourist attraction and bought out the other legatees for 390,000 Marks. Though moderately successful, income failed to cover costs and in 1910 Biesenbach sold the castle to Egbert von Simon who ran it successfully. Von Simon, a cavalry officer, was killed in battle at Arras during the First World War.

The castle and estate was acquired piecemeal at various auctions by the businessman and arms dealer, Hermann Flohr, who lived in part of the castle while the rest was used as a women's convalescent home. In 1930 the castle was sold to the Catholic order of Christian Brothers who established St Michael's boarding school there. In the late 1930s, the school came in increasing conflict with the Nazi Party and closed in 1938. In 1940 it was sold to the German Labour Front who established the Adolf Hitler school there.

Post-war, the castle became the property of the State of North-Rhine, Westphalia, who rented it out to the Federal Railways as a training facility until they moved to dedicated premises in Wuppertal in 1959. Subsequently, the castle was left empty and began to deteriorate.

Tip from me: you can take the funicular all the way up (which costs 10€), and I recommend you to walk the way down again to save some money (:
