Eltz
1911 Encyclopedia Britannica
or Resource Toolbox
a small river of Germany, a left bank tributary of the Mosel. It rises in the Eifel range, and, after a course of 5 m., joins the latter river at Moselkern. Just above its confluence stands the romantic castle of Eltz, crowning a rocky summit 900 ft. high, and famous as being one of the best preserved medieval strongholds of Germany. It is the ancestral seat of the counts of Eltz and contains numerous antiquities.
See Roth, Geschichte der Herren and Grafen zu Eltz (2 vols., Mainz, 1889-1890).
