Kaub is a town along the Rhine river known for its medieval castle ruins. The town contains well-preserved walls and towers from its historic fortifications. Nearby is the island fortress of Pfalzgrafenstein Castle, built in the 14th century to collect tolls from passing ships. It can only be reached by ferry and gives visitors a sense of what life was like in the Middle Ages without modern amenities. The water levels at Kaub are also an important indicator for navigation on the Rhine.

Pfalzgrafenstein 普法爾茨伯爵石城堡
Pfalzgrafenstein Castle (Burg Pfalz) is a toll castle on the Falkenau island, otherwise
known as Pfalz Island in the Rhine river near Kaub. Known as "the Pfalz," this former
stronghold is famous for its picturesque and unique setting.
普法爾茨伯爵石城堡 (簡稱普法爾茨城堡) 是萊茵河 佛肯瑙 (Falkenau) 島上的一個收費城
堡 ，佛肯瑙島 也稱為普法爾茨島，在考布附近。這個從前的城堡被稱為「普法爾茨
(Pfalz)」，以其風景如畫和獨特的環境而聞名。
The State eventually turned "the Pfalz" into a museum. The museum reflects the
conditions of the 14th century, and the visitor will not find modern amenities such
as electricity or a lavatory. It is accessible to the public via a ferry service from
nearby Kaub as long as river conditions permit.
現在「普法爾茨」是博物館。呈現出14世紀的情況，遊客們不會發現代化的設施，如電器或
廁所。只要河流的情況許可，大眾可以從考布搭渡輪前往。

25. Burg Pfalz (Pfalzgrafenstein)
Pfalz castle was built in 1327 in the Rhine on the island.
It was a former customs tower from the 14th c.
普法爾茨城堡 (普法爾茨伯爵石城堡)
普法爾茨城堡始建於1327年，修建在萊茵河
中小島上。這是從前14世紀的海關收稅塔。

26. Since 2002, the Pfalzgrafenstein castle has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage site of the
Upper Middle Rhine Valley. It is also a protected cultural heritage under the Hague Convention.
自2002年以來，普法爾茨城堡一直是聯合國教科文組織世界遺產中萊溫河谷的一部分 ，也是「海
牙公約」下的受保護文化遺產。

28. From the outset, Pfalzgrafenstein was used for the collection of tolls.
普法爾茨城堡從一開始就被用來收費。
In 1327, King Ludwig IV gave orders for the construction of a huge tower on narrow Falkenau
island in the middle of the Rhine. Just a few decades later, a curtain wall was costructed
around the tower. Pfalzgrafenstein’s current appearance is the result of a number of
extensions up until the 18th century.
在 1327 年，路德維希四世在萊茵河中部狹窄的佛肯瑙島上，建造一座巨大的塔樓。幾十年後，
塔樓周圍建造了一道圍幕牆。普法爾茨城堡目前的外觀，是 18 世紀以後的樣子。
The island had an important role to play in The Napoleonic War. On New Year’s Eve 1814,
,large numbers of Prussian and Russian troops crossed to the left bank of the Rhine via the
island. These troops led by Field Marshal Blucher were in pursuit of the French Emperor
Napoleon I.
該島在拿破崙戰爭中發揮重要作用。在 1814 年的新年除夕，大批普魯士和俄羅斯軍隊經過此島
橫渡到萊茵河左岸。由布萊謝爾元帥領導的軍隊，追逐著法國皇帝拿破崙一世。
Previously owned by the Dukes of Nassau, the island was acquired by the Kingdom of Prussia
in 1866. The collection of tolls ceased one year later.
該島原來由拿騷公爵擁有，於 1866 年被普魯士王國收購。一年後停止收費。
Pfalz Castle can only be reached by ferry.
普法爾茨城堡僅能乘渡輪抵達。
