The trip starts with a tour of the imperial city in the "German corner". Koblenz is one of the oldest cities in Germany. The trip takes you past the historic town hall with the “Schängelbrunnen” (fountain) and many other interesting points of the city. For example you will see the “Coin Master House called “Alte Münze“(old coin) which is located on “Münzplatz”(coin square). At this location is the birthplace of Prince Metternich too. Also, worth seeing is the “Balduinbrücke”, the second oldest, still maintaining bridge that crosses the river Moselle. The bridge dates from the 14th century. Then it goes up with the cabin cable car - to the “Ehrenbreitstein” fortress, which is situated on a 118-m high mountain spur. The inclined lift
(opened in 2011) in the District of “Ehrenbreitstein” connects the Mill Valley with the East side of the fortress. Be mesmerized by a breath-taking panoramic view of the city.
