Cochem

Following the course of the Moselle river for more than 100 miles is the beautiful Moselle Valley. The prettiest town in this popular wine-producing region, Cochem occupies the site of one of the valley´s earliest settlements. The medieval-style Reichsburh Castle, which dominates the town from atop a hill, is worth seeing, as is the Old Town with its cobblestone streets and halftimbered houses.

Attractions

A favorite respite amid the splendor of the Moselle Valley, Cochem offers an idyllic setting amid vine-clad hills, and a neo-Gothic castle. The little town is graced by three fortified gates, quaint narrow alleys and half-timbered houses. Visit Reichsburg Castle, perched high above the town. Originally built in the 11th century, the castle was destroyed by French soldiers in 1689 and reconstructed in the 19th century.

Currency

The unit of currency in Cochem is the Euro (€), made up of 100 cents.
