You're standing at Burg Castle, high on a steep ridge above the river Wupper. It's the largest reconstructed castle in North Rhine-Westphalia. Have a think about the name. In German, Schloss means a stately palace, and Burg means a fortress. A palace and a stronghold at once, and that actually fits.
