Koblenz
Where the Rhine and Moselle rivers meet lies one of Germany’s most beautiful cities: Koblenz. The Deutsches Eck, the cable car across the Rhine and Ehrenbreitstein Fortress are renowned far beyond the region and attract visitors from all over the world.

The next Rhine in Flames® takes place from the 7th to the 9th of August 2026.
