Deutsches Eck (German Corner)

4.9
4.6/5
69 reviews
Deutsches Eck (German Corner) is located in the German city of Koblenz, at the confluence of the Moselle and the Rhine River. A famous structure at Deutsches Eck (German Corner) is the equestrian statue of William I, which has a total height of 37 m, with the statue of the knight itself being 14 m high. In 1216, the Archbishop and Elector of Trier, Theoderich von Wied (approx. 1170–March 28, 1242), summoned the Teutonic Knights to Koblenz and, with the intention of protecting the local hospital, gifted them the local church and hospital. The Teutonic Knights established the "Deutschherrenhaus" (German: Deutschherrenhaus) on the territory at the mouth of the Moselle and Rhine River, serving as the Teutonic Knights' residence in Koblenz, and the territory at the river mouth thus became known as "Deutsches Eck (German Corner)". Deutsches Eck (German Corner) has attracted a large number of tourists since the day the equestrian statue of William I was built. The land where the equestrian statue of William I is located is suitable for various large-scale open-air events, frequently hosting concerts, open-air festivals, and fireworks displays on the Rhine River, and has also been the finish line for the annual Middle Rhine River Marathon since 2005.Koblenz · 1.2 km from downtown

The German Cape is a piece of land located at the confluence of the Moselle and Rhine rivers in Koblenz, Germany. There is a magnificent bronze equestrian sculpture of the first emperor of the German Empire, William I. On the top of the mountain opposite the berth is the Ehrenbreitstein Fortress. Around 1000 AD, a small castle building appeared here. In the following centuries, the electors of Trier converted it into a fortress. Later, it was destroyed by the French, and the Kingdom of Prussia also sent people to repair the Ehrenbreitstein Fortress. This fortress is one of the most powerful fortresses built in Europe after 1815, and it is still well preserved.
