Es ist die Sage vom Wisperthal, welches unweit Lorch am Rheine gelegen ist."

The crusades, the Sankt-Wernerskirchen, Lorch, the Fischfang, Hatto's Mäuseturm, the maelstrom at Bingen, the Kedrich, the story of the Kecker Reuter who liberated the maid that had been abducted by dwarfs, and again, and this is irrefutable, the story "von dem wunderlicheft Wisperthale drüben, wo die Vögel ganz vernünftig sprechen," all of these and others play a large role in Schreiber's sagas and in Heine's Rabbi.

After the war the family lived a while at the village of Lorch, where Captain Schiller was employed as recruiting officer.

Kriemhild would fain have left Burgundy forever at this fresh wrong, but with much difficulty was prevailed upon to remain and take up her abode at Lorch, whither Siegfried's remains were removed by her order.

Rosamund seeks, 88. LORCH.

Below Castle Sonneck, opposite Lorch, about the place where the hamlet of Nieder Rheinbach now lies, there rises a cliff which arches out over the Rhine bank.
