In half an hour you can reach Koblenz am Rhein (Koblenz at the Rhine). The city is both regional and nationwide known for the “Deutsche Eck”, where the Rhein and the Mosel (Moselle) flow together. Also the event named “Rhein in Flammen” (Rhine in flames) is a trip worth. It’s every year at the second weekend in august. The whole night sky shines in great colours, because of the nice firework. The nickname of people who live in Koblenz is “Schängel”.
Worth Seeing
