Cochem
The first tourists arrived in Cochem on the Moselle at the beginning of the 19th century. They were primarily English painters who captured the beauty of the Moselle Valley in their artwork.
The Reichsburg is a major attraction in the Cochem vacation region. No matter which direction you approach the town from, the castle towers atop a steep mountain cone that rises over 100 meters above the Moselle. During the Christmas season, there’s a special way to get into the Christmas spirit: At the Cochem Castle Christmas celebration, the traditional Christmas story comes to life in the courtyards of the Reichsburg Cochem.
As you stroll through the narrow streets, you’re sure to find a souvenir in one of the many shops.
