That's one of my favorites, castle Eltz.
Never destroyed, never even surrendered, still in possesion of the very family that build it. A so called "Ganerbenburg", which means that it is serveral castles in one, with all branches of the family living in the same castle.
Eltz is in Rheinland-Pfalz near the Mosel river, upriver from Koblenz, I think. Has been a while since I was there.
There's the ruins of a smaller fortress on the other side of the valley called "trutz dem Eltz" which was build when the castle was besieged in the middle ages..

So 'it' really has NOTHING to do with the english WORD 'slideshow'?
'следующая' was the russian word for 'next' since - ... ?

(Nothing wrong with that for me - i had russian in school, long ago, - but that was it...

ja lljubljou
tei ljoublisch
on (ona, ono) ljoublit

meij ljoublim
tei ljoublischet (?)
oni ljoubljat...


(that's all, what is left of my по-немецки -schkola-russian...)

Yes. I like it too. (just the look of it - was never there...)

I have an A-Level in russian, you are just going to have to trust me on this one, and my russian dictionary agrees:

Cледующий: following, next.

[Smaragdadler]

'dostrobrimilschtschatischtschjinost' means "Sehenswürdigkeiten' - (famous) sights in a town... [I'm really proud to "know" this one] and 'pamnjatnik' means monument. That's all (more ore less), what's left...
So, I believe you.

lol, that is about the first word we learn in Russian at my school, it is just so hilariously long, especailly compared to the English
