The city of Koblenz sits at an economic and strategic strong point at the confluence of the Mosel and Rhein Rivers in western Germany. The city has been in existence since Roman times and continues to be an important town for tourists as they travel throughout the region. Koblenz is surrounded by vineyards for hundreds of miles. It is also surrounded by dozens of castles and fortresses from all periods of German history. |
