Deutsches Eck

Deutsches Eck is an absolutely stunning place to visit! The meeting point of the Rhine and Moselle rivers offers breathtaking views, especially at sunset. The atmosphere is peaceful, and there’s a real sense of history surrounding the monument. The area is beautifully maintained, perfect for a relaxing walk or taking photos. It’s also a great spot to sit and enjoy an ice cream while watching the boats pass by. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, this iconic landmark is truly unforgettable. Highly recommended!

The German Corner (Deutsches Eck) in the city of Koblenz in Rhineland Palatinate, Germany is a historical site where two of Germany's largest and most important rivers unite; the Mosel and the Rhine. It is there where in 1897 the monument of German unification was erected, honoring and portraying Emperor Wilhelm on his warhorse, accompanied by the personification of Victory. You have a great view at the river, the monument and the castle across the river on the mountain top (accessible via cable car close by)

It is a real wonderful scene The River divides into two branches with the mountains and Cable cars along with the flags around you I loved the place , great for taking pictures

Great and large statue with huge area for people to stand, sit, walk by and eat/drink at the numerous food stalls in the vicinity. Nice place and area beside the Moselle (Mosel) river flowing into the Rhine river. Koblenz is very nice river city in Germany not very far from Border city Trier or the country Luxembourg by train.

Wonderful monument. The plaza has plenty of room to walk and position for photos. Food and drinks nearby as well as a few souvenir vendors.

Sixty-three steps to climb to the highest point of this humongous monument to Whilelm 1, which was much bigger than I thought it would be, situated at the land jutting into the confluence of the Rhein & Mosel Rivers. Wonderful views of the fortress, the Basilica, and the actual joining of rivers. A must/ see on Koblenz.

This is well worth a diversion if you're travelling through the area. Spectacular monument at a spectacular location

Definitely worth a visit, probably one of the largest statues in Europe. There is lots in the surrounding areas, cafes just behind. There is access to the fortress within a 5 minute walk and the old town is only a 7 minute walk A must see if visiting the area

The Deutsches Eck or German Corner, is where the Rhein and Mösel rivers converge in Koblenz. The corner has several memorials to German history, including pieces of the Berlin Wall and renaming a street after Chancellor Konrad Adenauer. But the corner is dominated by a huge bronze statue of German Emperor and the King of Prussia, Wilhelm I the Kaiser's father. It was rebuilt in 1993. One of the more emotional and sad histories shown in laminate placards (photos) here, is the the erection of the Berlin Wall by the communists and the solders who shot at anyone who trying to crossover to the west. It was clearly a painful time for the Germans themselves and the west, which felt helpless to stop these atrocities. The German Corner became a symbol for German Re-Unification both by Adenauer and President Theodor Heuss for the German people Today, the flags of the sixteen German Länder States fly here, in remembrance of German unity. Btw, the Basilica of St. Castor, the oldest church in Koblenz is very close and worth seeing.

On our first walk after checking in we came to see where the two rivers join. As a bonus, a huge statue of Wilhelm King of Prussia awaited our view. Lots of river traffic , commercial and Viking Cruises.

Definitely a recommend for a COVID safe outdoor activity. This is the point where the two rivers in Germany meet. There is a nice little Biergarten just down the way and it is overlooked by a really cool castle. Just a bit down the other path you have the cable cars up to the fortress. Speaking of the fortress, great views up to it from here. I think this would be a really fun spot to hop on a river cruise when they're running again. Or maybe just bring a sandwich and hang on the steps. I'm glad our wandering around brought us here and it could be an interesting thing to show visiting friends and family!

Nice bit of history & landscaping. This is a major stop for all the river cruising boats so there were lots of tourists but there is a nice, shady promenade leading to this monument. Where the Rhine meets the Mosel. Waters were supposed to showcase different colors but we didn't notice any difference. Maybe there needs to be a special time of year? Flags representing German states and allies, nice view along the water

Where mother Mosel and Father Rhine converge. This has been a significant place since the Romans came here in 8 A.D. today it is Deutsches Eck, the German Corner. There is a great statue of Kaiser Wilhelm The first stop his horse here. It is very imposing and we didn't realize how big it is until we walked up to it.

There is a great statue of Kaiser Wilhelm The first stop his horse here. It is very imposing and I did numerous photo shoots there when I was a kid (I was raised in Koblenz). If you have a chance to go, I recommend two things: lunch or dine at Blumenhof, one of Koblenz's finest restaurants) and take the cable car to the Festung, it's really worth it.

Definitely something you have to visit when you're in Koblenz. There is a Biergarten close by that serves all kinds of beverages, German street food and deserts.

Deursches Eck or the "German Corner", is at the confluence of the Rhine and Moselle Rivers. It is dedicated to German unity. The national flag and the flags of the 16 Lander (states) are flying at the German Corner as a reminder of that German unity. In November 1989, three concrete parts of the Berlin Wall were installed and are now dedicated to the "victims of the division". There is also a bronze statue of Wilhelm l that replaced the original that was damaged during World War ii. A most amazing landmark.

Never thought I would have the opportunity to be here. Grateful to have has the chance. While not terribly knowledgable about German history, this appears to be a significant location/marker for the German heritage. If you are in the area check it out. We arrived in late November (almost December) but I would imagine this to be a summer hot spot. 4 stars but only because we weren't able to experience it in the summer.

Amazing place - a must see for every tourist and local! I love to pass by from time to time to enjoy the view! If you are in Koblenz, then you have to see it!
