Wolfgang Staudt Die Reichsburg Cochem ist eine Burganlage in der rheinland-pfälzischen Stadt Cochem an der Mosel. Sie ist ihr Wahrzeichen und steht auf einem weithin sichtbaren Bergkegel mehr als 100 Meter oberhalb der Stadt. Als Gipfelburg gehört sie zum Typus der Höhenburgen. Die Anlage, die im Mittelalter als Zollburg diente, wurde den Ergebnissen aktueller Burgenforschungen zufolge wohl um 1100 oder in der ersten Hälfte des 12. Jahrhunderts errichtet. Nachdem sie im 17. Jahrhundert zerstört worden war, ließ sie der Berliner Kaufmann und spätere Geheime Kommerzienrat Louis Fréderic Jacques Ravené gemäß dem Geschmack der Burgenromantik in den Jahren von 1868 bis 1877 wiederaufbauen. Burg Cochem ist damit ein gutes Beispiel für ein Bauwerk, das im Stil der Neugotik während der Zeit des Historismus gestaltet wurde. Die Reichsburg Cochem ist ein geschütztes Kulturgut nach der Haager Konvention. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
