    Hiking

    The "Enemy Brothers" are a German saga that emerged in the late 16th century about the castles Sterrenberg and Liebenstein, which are located directly next to each other, in the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley near Kamp-Bornhofen.

    Due to the great popularity of the legend and the unique location of the castles, which are separated from each other by two shield walls, the two castles themselves are referred to as the "Enemy Brothers" and are more commonly known as such than by their real names.
