About it

Cochem Imperial Castle, high above the Moselle river in Germany, captured by a drone from many photos and drawn with splats. French troops blew it up in 1689. It stood in ruins until a Berlin businessman bought it in 1868 and rebuilt it in a new Gothic style, with towers and turrets.

Tap it and a ripple runs over the hill as it hops. Drag to circle it and look at the vineyard terraces on the slope and the castle's towers.
