Enjoy Koblenz in the heart of the picturesque region of Rhine and Moselle. Dive into the over 2000 year-old history of this former Roman settlement, one of the oldest cities in Germany. We will take you so view the Deutsches Eck (German corner) from which the city’s Latin name “confluentes – at the merging of the rivers” is derived. The establishment of the Knights of the Teutonic Order in the 13th century at the merging of the rivers gave this historic site its name: Deutsches Eck (German corner). You will be impressed by the giant equestrian statue of German Emperor Wilhelm I and get a magnificent view of 19th century Fortress Ehrenbreitstein perched 118 metres above the Rhine on the right embankment. Visit the Basilica of St. Castor, founded in 836 AD and designated a part of the UNESCO World Heritage cultural landscape of the Upper Middle Rhine Valley since 2002.
