Deutsches Eck (German Corner)

The German Cape is a land at the intersection of the Moselle and Rhine rivers in Koblenz, Germany, and houses a bronze horse riding sculpture of William I, the first emperor of the German Empire. On the top of the hill opposite the berth is the Ellenbrightstein Fortress. Around 1000 AD, a small castle was built here, and for centuries the Electors of Trier converted it into a fortress. Later, the French destroyed it, and the Prussian Kingdom sent men to repair the Ellenbrightstein Fortress. The fortress is one of the most powerful fortresses built in Europe after 1815 and remains intact.

The Horn of Germany has attracted a large number of tourists since the day it built the sculpture of William I on horseback. Since 2002 it has been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List as part of the upper middle Rhine valley.

Early in the morning we arrived at the Cape of Koblenz, under the blue sky and white clouds to admire the statue of William I on horseback. The statue stands 37 meters high and stands at the intersection of the Moselle and Rhine rivers.

The famous bronze statue of William I quietly looked at the earth under his feet.

Tour the Rhine, pass by, nothing, the emperor sculpture is good.

On the dockside of the Viking cruise ship docking in Koblenz is the German Cape, also known as the German Cape, a sharp green area at the intersection of the Moselle and the Rhine rivers. In this special place called the "German horn" stands a bronze horse riding statue of William I, the first emperor of the German Empire, engraved on the base: the empire will live forever if it is united and loyal. These are the last two verses of the German poet's "Spring Greetings to the Fatherland."

The city of Koblenz is in western Germany, at the intersection of the Moselle and the Rhine, and is a must-have location for the upper and middle reaches by boat. Koblenz is known for his horse riding sculpture of William I, the first emperor of the German Empire, the one who united Germany. Passing through a shop window, he retweeted a beautiful panoramic view of Koblenz.

You will be sorely surprised when you climb high. The domineering spirit of the bronze statue of William I, the spirit of the Rhine and Moselle rivers, the spirit of the ancient castles and vineyards along the coast, the three intersect, can be said to be the witness of the Germanic national history, is the appearance of Germany, It is also the concentration of the German spirit.
