Altenahr is a real place with a castle (Burg Are) in Germany, between Trior and Coln (Cologne) and the region has been known for wine growing since Roman times.

Is the poem related to a real legend? Or did Charles make it up during a visit?

The Leslie Fish adaptation of the poem is still sung in the SCA (Cantwr):
