A short history of the Loreley mythology: The Rhine is beside Donau, Rhone and other rivers a remnant of the prehistorical primeval ocean of the ice ages, which covered for millions of years nearly whole Europe and disappeared finally thru up folding of the Alpes, Its fountain lies in the Alpes and runs down to the northern sea. In his middle part the river is borded on both sides with steep hills: the Rheinisches Schiefergebirge. The most narrow part of the whole river is the Loreley with a steep rock of 132 m height. Because of the narrowness and very sharp curves the current there is very strong and dangerous, which makes navigation very difficult and had already many sailors killed in accidents by drowning. These many fatal accidents founded the mythology, that a fair haired girl sitting on the pinnacle of the rock combed her long blond hair and singing captivating sounding songs. Thus she enchanted the sailors and lured them into their ruin, because they were distracted from meticulous navigation, crashed with their boats against the rock and drowned. The Loreley is the most gorgeous part of the whole Rhine and a UNESCO world heritage side.
