The Drachenfels ("Dragon's Rock") is a mountain in the Siebengebirge mountain range near Bonn, Germany. You can find a romantic ruined castle at the top. A German legend says that Siegfried – the hero of the Nibelungen song – killed a dragon living in a cave in the mountain, then had a bath in its blood to become invulnerable. Hence, the mountain is named the "Dragon's Rock" -- Drachenfels.

A mountain railway, the Drachenfels Railway, connects Königswinter (the city just above the mountain) with the summit of the Drachenfels.

Definetly worth climbing to see the beautiful view over the Rhine river valley.
