Rheinbrohl (Latin origin of the name: Broele trans Rhenum) is a municipality in the territorial collectivity (Verbandsgemeinde) of Bad Hönningen, in the district of Neuwied, in Rhineland-Palatinate, in western Germany. On its Rhine bank is the starting point of the Upper Germanic-Rhaetian Limes, the fortification of 550 km length which delimited the Roman Empire. At this place near the Rhine is the reconstruction of a Roman watchtower.[3]
