Cleves (Kleve in German) is a historic town located in the Lower Rhine region of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, near the Dutch border. The town's history dates back to the Middle Ages when it was the capital of the Duchy of Cleves, a significant territorial power in the region from the 11th to the 16th century.
The cityscape is dominated by the Schwanenburg (Swan Castle), built on a hill overlooking the town, which serves as a symbol of the city's rich medieval heritage. The castle's name references the Knight of the Swan legend, which is deeply connected to the town's cultural identity.
Today, Cleves is a medium-sized town that combines its historical heritage with modern cultural institutions. The town maintains strong cultural ties with neighboring Netherlands and serves as a regional center for education and commerce. Its museums and cultural institutions preserve and showcase both the area's history and contemporary arts.
