Godesberg Castle was built in the early 13th Century by Archbishop Dietrich von Hegebach of Cologne, but was destroyed in the late 16th Century after Bishop Gebhart von Walburg sought refuge there following his conversion to Protestantism. The gothic monument on the left of the present drawing appears in an engraving by Samuel Prout published in Facsimiles of sketches made in Flanders and Germany and drawn on stone by Samuel Prout, FSA Painter in water colours in ordinary to his Majesty, published in London in 1833.
